Guys check this out. I lucked into a 1918 MG0815 all it needs is a lower feed arm. The one on it is broken. It also needs a lock. It is all matching. After a bath in a electrolisis tank, the paint on the water jacket came off. We went back camo. Any help with a lower feed arm and a lock would be great. I will have it at the Show of Shows on display.
What do you think?
Thanks, P. Stout 07FFL/SOT

Brian Linde makes repro lower feedarms. They are very nice. Contact him with GB. If you get his email, please email it to me so i can save it. He is the only real source.

We aged the paint on the water jacket. I hope to have it running soon.
