Wassell part needed

[3putt]

Wishing to purchase a Wassell Brake backing plate (holds the brake shoes) to complete a project.  I've been told there are 2 different types, but all those I have seen were the same unit, and used on the front or rear.  I think the Wassell Tyran might have also been the same unit.  I have a photo of the unit I need.  You can reach me at [email protected], or 724-745-4231.

Nelson,
Apparantly your in my area as we share the same area code. I was just up at Steve Dorekams(spelling?) place getting a few parts for my KTM projects. Steve has a motorcycle salvage operation above Butler,Pa with two buildings filled with parts and bikes end to end,top to bottom literally! Low and behold, I said whats that over there?
It is a Tyran,Steve sez. Bike looked to be somewhat complete. I imagine it will either be parted or sold in its entirety. Let me know if you think this would cross reference or be of help towards what your looking for?

Hi Bob, Thanks for the info.  I live near Washington PA, on the other side of the city from Butler.  I had a Tyran and sold it a few years ago, and the wheels hubs on it were like my Wassell trials bikes.  Please send me the phone number of the salvage yard at [email protected].  Regards,    Nelson McCullough
