Ambo Non-louvered side covers..... anybody have a pair to sell?
« on: January 13, 2017, 01:15:09 AM »
I'm looking for a pair of Ambo non-louvered side covers. I was optimistic that Mark at Moto Guzzi Classis had repo fiberglass covers available but his molds have walked off and are missing. He doesn't have any. Can these be brought back to life? There  are a lot of smart and capable people here. Does anyone have experience making fiberglass molds? Is is not worth it to invest in making reproductions? I can do 3D modeling and produce solid model files but that's the extent of my capabilities. There are laser scanners available to scan physical parts and convert them to 3D solid models. From there molds can be produced. Perhaps silicon molds can be made from existing samples? I'm looking for ideas.
I'd much rather ask for forgiveness than ask for permission.

Demar: Have you contacted Howard Robinson? He's in the process of unloading a large accumulation of Loop Frame parts, maybe there's a chance his has 'em. I'm guessing you're on the Loop Frame Guzzi Yahoo Group, eh?
