Jeff,
George at Classic Vee Dub has them in his catalouge, not sure if he's got any in stock.
http://www.classicveedub.com.au/ClassicVeeDub.asp
And of course, Birchall will probably post saying, " you can get that at Vintage."
Mahokie, If they're freely available here, you should be able to find one in the UK. Shipping from Aus is likely to be pricey.
Regards,
Matt.

I don't know if the 1303 is different to the 1302 but I got one from Classic Vee Dub for my 1302, although at the time it was his last one. Plenty
of new ones around for earlier models but the supers are very hard to get new for a RHD. It took me years to find the one George had.

Classic "did" have one or 2 a while ago
He has not had them since
V Force got some kits and had a machinist make them up
Were expensive (well all is reklative i suppose)
I did see one on ebay about 2 years ago
AFAIK a 1302 and 1303 are the same except for the steer limits on the drop arms
One has them on the box and one has them on the other side - pitman arm??
Futue te ipsum!!!

Bizarre is right any superbug box - 1302 or 1303 will fit you may just have to swap over the drop arms its from a 1302
