Re: Bosch Magneto Plate
I believe I have one here in the States - I can get a weigh-in & you provide your postal code & I'll see what we can do.

Re: Bosch Magneto Plate
Thanks Steve. I believe we corresponded many moons ago. My postcode is 4552 Queensland Australia.

Re: Wanted, Bosch Magneto Plate
For all of us, the postcode/zipcode plays no role in international shipping. Parcels from here to any destination in the USA are all at the same rate. Likewise, the reverse applies. Variations in charges within the USA are based on distance, so there are different rates charged. Australia Post now uses flat rates for parcels based on weight, so no difference for rates for longer distances. It would seem that after travelling all the way across the Pacific, the little bit extra to get to the final destination is of no consequence to either Postal system.

Re: Wanted, Bosch Magneto Plate
A good friend in USA who has helped me out for many years is also looking for one if anyone else has one for sale or just the rear cover plate and gear. Any help appreciated.

Re: Wanted, Bosch Magneto Plate
One of those wheels popped up here on the forum a long while ago. Not sure if it could be found again…

Re: Wanted, Bosch Magneto Plate
Thanks Kevin. If you see anymore, please let me know. Just the centres would be good. They are the same both sides and fit a T hub perfectly. I do believe they were made to fit T fords and could have originated in the UK or Europe.Kevin Pharis wrote: ↑Wed Jun 25, 2025 11:16 pmOne of those wheels popped up here on the forum a long while ago.

Re: Wanted, Bosch Magneto Plate
Your pics look familiar… no doubt you have posted them before. The centers look simple enough to duplicate, and good news is that you only need to make 2. Haven’t you always wanted to experiment with metal spinning…? Spokes and rims will be the easy partMark Herdman wrote: ↑Thu Jun 26, 2025 9:13 amThanks Kevin. If you see anymore, please let me know.
