The last owner had the engine rebuilt in 1997, and had done very little to it since then.
I am very tempted to get her up and running, and show her as she is, just to be different .
Just shows, they are still out there !

Hi Keith,
Well done.
I saw that the one in the auction yesterday went for a very reasonable amount considering there was another body with it. Assume this was the other one of those you looked at?
cheers Richard
