Hi guys, I've just come across this thread, started looking for one of these great books and found one on eBay ( of course ) for $35.. but the seller is quoting $34 to post it out of the US! Had to look at it two or three times to believe it...is that REALLY what it would cost?!
And I thought posting to the US from England was expensive!! Ah well, maybe I'll find one here one day.

Cheers, Rob

Rob, the postage for a normal size book should be around $15, the rest of it is probably eBay fees or the seller wants something extra for the effort to ship overseas.

Hi Kari,
yeah that's what I thought, too. I don't mind expense too much, heaven knows I've sometimes paid waaaay too much for an engine just cos I HAD to have it, it's poor value for money that gets me...and paying as much postage as product is pretty poor value for money , I reckon.
Ps, Kari, my wee PeeWee is looking real sharp now, just a pity I forgot to take any 'before' pics. Thanks for finding those parts for me.

Cheers, Rob

My pleasure Smile

How about some "after" pics then Wink

Sure thing...I'll get some posted soon...but I can't claim any real credit, it's not exactly a 'restoration', as such--- more a 'new-parts-for-old' rebuild, so it looks exactly like any other near-new PeeWee I've ever seen!!

Now where's my camera...

Cheers, Rob
