Hi everyone, I have been offered these and want to make sure everything is right. I believe the GAB is type 1.25.1. What do you guys think? As far as the IAB, it looks good but I have no idea on the maker. Let me know what you think. best wishes,
jeff

Jeff, the IAB is good. It is a s.c. type 2 OM, tied to that maker by an example bearing that mark. It is also tied to a maker with an odd mark who is yet unknown....that badge was a beautiful screwback example. Either way one of the best IAB designs in my opinion .

Thanks Scott! When I was scrolling up after posting I thought "how did my background change from dark to light". I then noticed it was your badge Looks the same to me. best wishes,
