Hi Halfway. Yes any later Sherpa T front wheel will fit. Even some of the earlier ones. I think they changed to the conical hub for the M 91 front wheel. I`m not sure on that one though. The bash plate was a part of the frame on these models so if yours is gone then someone has cut it out. Any welder would be able to weld a new one in there. They had either round or oval holes in them. Have a look on eBay for parts too. In Motion often has second hand parts too.
