You had a big smile steering Matt's Fowler. You would of had to scrub it off.

Hi Guys,

Nice little gathering of engines. I really like the rubber cleats on the Fowler, very tidy. Can you tell me how that was done? Are they strips vulcanized on to the cleats or cut from a vulcanized solid tire?

Regards....Brett

They are steel plate with the rubber vulcanized on then welded on.
This is the company that does them, i got a price for a Marshall we are doing and it was very reasonable.
