John , that’s a great shame , I know how much pride you give your machines , both restoring them and above all showing them.
I personally find it quite sad that many of our machines are hidden away in sheds by hoarders , that never see the light of day , most of which don’t even run , but as the saying goes each to their own. I really hope the Atco falls into your category.
I always try to help out the genuine restorer , but when a hoarder comes a calling they have no chance whatsoever.
Andy.
