Cheap Avo shocks - unused but need a little TLC

Bought these from a Lotus Seven club member in 2006. They are Avo schocks with springs set up for a CEC Caterham. Sold by Fresstyle Motorpsort, well repsected in Caterham circles. He never used them and they have sat in my loft for the last two years!

Don't know spring rates but damper specs are:
Front: Open 15" closed 12"
Rear: Open 17" closed 11 3/4"
Rose jointed.

They are steel bodied and have some surface rust which is purely cosmetic and should wire brush off. It does not stop the spring seats unwinding.

Pictures here:

I'm looking for £120 ono.

Cheers

Ben

i guess he wants to know are they 1.9" springs or 2.5" spring seats?

(plus he's probably interested in the rose joint inner bore which is probably 1/2"

Right. Measured these and compared them with the Gaz ones that i'm also selling. The Gaz are marked 2.25" but are 3" across. These are 2.5" across so I'm guessing they are 1.9" springs. Hope that makes sense!

Just to confirm this is the OD of the spring. The ID is 2.25". Is this the way they are measured?
