Does anyone recognize this milling? Got this on ebay and cleaning it up. Wire detent, no lug hole adjustment , no ivg threads, and timing rod is not threaded.

Early, obviously but parts choices are putting it fairly early..
Could be Dirk Gadberry's workComment

Saw this in a 'cocker FB group surprised it ended up going to eBayComment

I'm *pretty sure* PMI was doing small runs using rebadged custom mill bodies off both WGP and BBT (pre shocktech) at the time. That looks like BBT cuts to me.Comment

Entirely possible, its the part choices throwing me though...
Thats a proline back block, which was a brand associated with NPS not PMI. The wire detent would lean bbt but the lack of feedneck vents makes me second guess.
Then there's the front block not matching... Which could mean it was at one point parted or had a matching shroud... Bob long and innovative/dirk Gadberry's work generally skipped Anno matching front blocks when they had a matching shroud.
I could seriously run a master class in cocker forensic historyComment

Pmi cockers were not very custom. From one of the big shops, bbt.
On this I suspect the ans junk was just thrown on to make it more complete. Otherwise the frame wouldn't be gutted.
Customized but looks like a non famous one off. Not to say it couldn't have been made by a customizer of note, but isn't from a series I can recognize.
Back block matching the back of the body speaks well of the person behind it.Comment

Back in the mid/late 90’s ANS was actually regarded as fairly decent upgraded parts. Limited options back then.Comment

Everything was better than the original sledge
