isnt RON COOPER doing HETCHINS under license or something? I have seen "replica" JACK TAYLORS on EBAY and even had communication with "builder" who had acquired curved seat tubes and proposed building a frame for me............$700.
         All the better reason to not "OVER RESTORE" that classic, it going to be like classic cars before you know it. (no apologies to RALPH LAUREN if he is a CR member)
          Better a few WARTS so everyone knows its the real thing
