This lamp has just come my way from another member. I’m guessing a late version of the type? Note the hard rubber grip, original?
@BigStevie Does it have the reflector? Technically it’s AL8 with reflector; AL9 without reflector. Cheers Tony
..Nice condition that, Stevie...The black hood looks good...even a lot of the original paint still...There should be a date stamp also?
@podbros I’ve not taken it apart yet, as assembled I can’t see a date. I’ll need to find a pattern for the missing heat deflector plate that sits below the hand grip. The paint on the fount is pretty good, the frame is a bit tatty. I’ll make my mind up after a clean as to whether the frame gets painted or not.
@BigStevie ..No worries.. If you do a search for AL9a you will see a post about heat shield dimensions...I think they should be the same? Good luck
