Can anyone tell me the manufacturer? The identification plate has the logo "LsE".
I am in the process of stripping it down and found the petrol tank full of a rusty fibrous material. I realised after a while that a previous owner had made the engine block/petrol tank gasket without removing the middle. This had collapsed and was returning to its maker.

You may find the gasket was original; I had the same problem back in the 1970s with one straight out of MoD stores.
One warning: the gasket is asbestos, so bag it up safely and dispose of it properly.
