Answer
Barry,
Lets  try again and please watch the spellings and abbreviations.
Hardy made a Alnwick model, is that what you mean ?
What do you mean by custom ?
Hardy History:  http://www.articlealley.com/article_634978_32.html
Even Better is http://www.hardyandgreyscanada.com/hardy/history.php
with rod name history.
The name you gave "grays alnick " nor "aln " appear in the list from 1890s to 1984.
You are writng to a guy in the USA where Hardy is rarely seen.
Good luck
