Re: G2 seat
The club only stock the later type seat Ernie, the demand for the very early type is so small that it wasn't and isn't economical to have them reproduced.

Re: G2 seat
I have got an early type seat pan I've no use for from a 59. It would need some minor repair to the front mounting ( previous owner bent it to try and fit it to a later model . Its now straight but mounting has been cut down where the bolt holes were needs minor welding ) but is otherwise very sound . PM me if interested and will send some pics . Cheers . Paul.
