Looking for some help identifying these please. They are described as 66001, Chariot de genois (not necessarily French Manufacture) 100mm rolling 2-961222. The track size is 25mm so what track would that be as well. They are ball bearing type.

A quick google suggests (and close inspection of the photo agrees) that these are Lewmar items. Try googling 66001 genoa'.
 
OK, well the style is certainly Lewmar ( or 'after Lewmar').

Having seen how bits of rigging fail, I wouldn't want anything from ebay on my boat, but I wish you luck finding out what you've bought.
 
I\'d go for Goiot...

...as fitted by Beneteau in the 70s & 80s. "Goiot" needs a umlaut over the "i".

My neighbour had the devil's job getting a replacement car for his Evasion 34. The nearest place I have seen them on sale is the Co-operative Maritime at Lezardrieux.

I have them on my Gib'sea and they seem to work well - As they're now getting on for 10 years old I guess they're pretty hard wearing too.
