Guys, thanks for the great information. As some of you know I have had 3 Birds here for close to 25 years all waiting for a restoration. I have been collecting parts for years and up in the air on nose cones. I have a total of 6 cones, ranging from junk to less than fair. If I take all 6 I can probably piece together 2 cones. I would like to have 1 cone that is nice. Trying to decide on buying a original that needs a little work, or buying a repo. All the info is helpful.

Thanks !!
Dan
