Seeking/Trade: Simplex SLJ or SX
I am looking for a Simplex SLJ or SX model that has a capacity of handling up to 30t. All alloy, no Delrin. Can be badged "simplex" or "Peugeot". There are many models that fit the criteria, so I will leave it open.
I am looking for a trade; I have fair amount of Campagnolo Nuovo Record components; RD, FD, cranks, brakes, seatpost, etc.(stuff from 1970s) Or tell me what you are looking for, maybe I have it in that mess of a garage.
Maybe we can make a match. (photos are of what I am looking for in general). Or a cash transaction.

Are you looking for the no plastic look, or actual no plastic minus fiddly bits?
SX has delrin parallelogram plates, with a cosmetic metal sheet covering it in the front. Rear is a sandwich of steel and delrin like later model Prestige.

Delrin does have it's detractors, but the Tour has been won on a delrin Simplex as recently as 1983.

I had dug this Peugeot/Simplex out for possible sale earlier this week and hadn't gotten around to posting it yet. Complete including the Simplex Jockey wheel and pully. Plenty of patina. It does appear to have a little plastic Delrin in the one piece.
Added Photo on 05-24-19: Stamped in the Delrin is "SGDG" which might be the model number? I'm not certain.
I'm open to trade offers but originally had planned to offer it for sale.

I have these. The left one should the one you are looking for. Sorry for the bad pictures.
The Simplex can not be read anymore.
