Do I Get It Turtled???

[HERMITT]

Ive got an acid wash freeflow cockerwithan e2 frame andbreak beam eyes. I was wondering if it is worth getting it turned into aturtle cocker to reduce the weight and get rid of the back block.

I was wondering what people think about them and also if they are compatable with the mq valve when it comes out.

Let me know!!!

Hey Rich - they are compatable with MQ Valves& Turtles are real nice, but ecconomically not really worth it

Mate Nik has an Eclipse Turtle in niknak Scampi green and hes struddling to shift it

Yea if u want it to keep its worth doing, but u wont sell it for anything near as much as u paid for it.

Yes, you wont shift it if you want to sell it, *but* if you can MQ it, basically you've got a uniquely styled marker which is essentially an ego in different clothing!

I love mine, well, now i've got it working 100% which took a while and a few of the obligatory sacrificial chickens that every cocker owner needs in their tool kit.

A turtle is faster, lighter and definitely shexier than a bog standard E2.....Definitely recommend one, but you do have to want to keep it, as cockers have just (unfairly in my opinion) become yesterday's news.

MQ's may be available soon...had another email from PBX teh other day just to check my dealer interest...

i had great fun with my turtle, although i only used it a couple of times i mainly did it a project build......it was the first in the uk and was great fun to put together, i belive smally on here has it now.
only thing that i would change on it now if i were doing it would be to add an mq valve (i have one in my spares atm which i never got round to fitting to my team cocker lfrom ast year) and to also chop the bottom tube.

very sweet cocker and amazingly light, i took it down to planet when i had finished it and it was very slightly under the weight of a nexus....not bad concidering how much is skimmed off those!

 

[Skeet]

You would get a good price for that mate...I know peeps who want one..at least what you paid me for it!

 

[jahlad]

yeah i was thinking of selling it, no point in it gathering dust as as they are still rare as rocking horse ****e it shouldnt be too hard to find someone wanting one

i believe smally (on here as smally85) is looking to sell his turtle, worth pm ing him an offer.

Don't think that Hermitt is looking to buy, more to convert his E2 that he already has....or i'd be on the offer with mine too!
