Parts for a 79' GS 250

[phats]

Ive recently purchesed a 1979 GS 250, in need of some serious restoration. Most of the bikes there, except for the airbox & the seat, which im having trouble locating. Anyone know where il'd get either from , weather it be in new or used/scrap condition ? (ive seen the seperate parts for a 78' seat for sale e.g. base, foam & cover, but im not sure if this will fit ?)
Many thanks.

Try this guy for a seat cover:

He also used to have auctions on Ebay, I think his username was Vintage_Racing or something but I haven't seen any for some time.

Al Buehner has some bits listed for seats but I don't see anything for a 79

You could try http://www.jimaimracing.co.uk/ for parts but you need to speak to Jim himself as he has the stock of old parts and he's retired so Good Luck.

Ellastone Offroad 01889 590186 may have some second hand stuff but no guarantees

Second hand stuff does turn up on Ebay but mostly on the American, French and Italian sites, but with the £to$ exchange rate though the postage becomes a bit more reasonable.

Alternatively you could try posting in the wanted section here and I'm sure somone may be able to help you out as they're a great bunch of guys.
