There was a good lot of 1903 parts in Wellington and the late Din Collings went home with saddlebags full on an old Indian motorcyle. I bought Dins parts at Teds auction. Supposedly a guy from Numrich came to McCarthys and bought all the bands, trigger guards, and sight collars. I am a regular customer of Adam. :)
