This is the part I love when it all starts going back together. Sorry for the quality of the photos I’ll take some more in the daylight.

Started to get the red on the chassis and all the framework for the handles. The nose cone had remnants of red paint inside so I’m going for red inside and silver outside.

She looked much worse in the photos, in the flesh she’s actually quite good. I received your emails Charlie and they will be a godsend in the restoration. Thank you for digging the side panel out you’ll have to let me know what you want for it or the pair if you have them. I really appreciate the help thankyou.

Thanks Roatavator she’s not a runner but she’s not seized and turns over nicely so hopefully shouldn’t take too much to get her running. She’d been left outside untouched for 40 years so I think I’ll treat her to a full restoration.

I’d already noted your information off the item description thanks. I’d love some literature on her parts book and owners manual would be really useful. If you have got some side panels I’ll gladly buy them off you as she does need some. Thanks for the help and info Charlie.

I’ve just started work on the engine because I know it runs brilliantly I’m not going down the full rebuild route just a service a good clean and some paint on the flywheel ,flywheel housing, cyclinder fins etc.
