Look what I picked up last weekend, No compression and no spark but spins over on the push of a button.

The photos are a bit fuzzy as the conditions weren't too good for taking photos.

Default spares

Good find Rick , it looks to be pretty complete . Many of them were converted to 24V operation to match the Larkspur radio system - these are usually painted in DBG

Bill Drew had a mountain of NOS spares for them . I still have a NOS crankshaft and valves, piston, rings and NOS brown coloured air cleaner with the yellow decal . Points, ig. coil and more. The original long flex exhaust pipe does turn up at swap meets .

Hard to see for sure, but in the first picture, is the kill switch in the "off" position?
