I,m just saying hello
by vaughan Thu Mar 03 2022, 16:31
It must be nearly 45 years since I plucked a Wolseley WD ? from a skip, in those days you could still get spares from Wolseley who were in Brimingham, then followed in quick sucession 2 Lister D,s each powering diaphragm water pumps and a Petter A1.
Then I found abandoned in a field near Rugby a Newman WD2 rowcrop tractor fitted with a single cylinder Coventry Victor diesel engine, at that time spares were still available and Victors rebuilt the bottom half of the engine for me, this tractor is believed to be living in Lincolnshire now.
Vintage cars and motorcycles are my main interest now but when I was offered a JAP model 3 to tinker with why would I not say no ?.
I know that its not complete so I,ll be on here with a list soon LOL

Hi Vaughan and a very warm welcome to the forum.
Plenty of JAP knowledge and expertise here. Please start a new thread in New Projects/Restorations once you get going. Good luck.
