Bamford EV1

This is my Bamford EV1 with Stuart water pump. The pump pully is awating paint at the moment but I just had to show you as non of my mates are into this stuff. I hope you like it!
PS the pallet is only temp.

Looking good Budda, you've done a good job on it. Can I ask the reason for that colour or is it just your preferance? So will you build a trolley or skid mount it? You'll have to send us more pictures as you get on with it.

Well done

Stu.

i so been waiting to see pictures of this, i really have what a lovely job, is that the pump you had off me if so nice job

Yes thats the pump I had off of you ryan looking a bit diffrent now though!
The colour is a bit of a family colour, all my grandads steam engines were done in it.
At some point i'll make some trollys for them but first I need to find some wheels that all match and then take it to some rallys.

Great idea for the colour, you know whats coming next lol have you any pics of your grandad's steam engines? I'm sure everyone would like to see them. Thats similar to the pump i'm hopefully getting once things get sorted and a bit of spare time is found. I think there a nice pump and make a good exhibit not to big and a great name, not to common .

Stu.

P.S. did I mention posting some pics of your grandads engine

I'll post some if I can find them. We no longer have them but i'm sure there must be some photos around at home.
I must get some more engines you never know I might just upset some purists [i]what fun

what is the make and exact colour of the paint as really want to do my wolseley in that colour

The paint code is 540 and I got it through my local body shop. But the makers are Auto Paints in Brighton there no. 01273 32681 they may send it out by coruier

i also got to ask , where is the pulley wheel off the pump

Hanging in the shed waiting to be painted red and black!

what kinda trolley you putting it on, wood or metal

wood would look nice I think.

Looking good ,use some hard wood for your trolly then you dont have bother with it again.
Keep the good work up
