Nice, I would like a Early lister D at some point, Low tank one would be the one I would look for, but I do like the spoked flywheel one.

Very nice indeed!

Cheers Steve

PS nice Austin 7 too!

hi....sorry don't know your surname...

thats a great line up of LISTER D's....
Ive just bought my son a LISTER DK.....
its not done any work in its life....it was a stand bye in a milking parlor....
he cant wait for the new rally season to start....
going to make a nice trolly for it....

the LISTERS you have in the photos,did you make the trolleys for them,or did you bye them already on the trolleys....
was going to ask if you made them,did you make the handles or bye the handles already made...

can you let me know,as i was going to have a go at making some my self.....

many thanks.....mike......

hi, i brought them on trolleys, the two on the wheel barrow type trolleys are the original trolleys for the d type. cheers...ivan.

Very nice collection of D Types.

Regards

Martin

Not really being a lister D person, is each one a diffrent spec?

It looks like im staying in the country, so might be something to keep my eye out for!

Cheers Steve

The first two are spec 10, the spoke flywheel one is spec 12 and the other two are spec 11. cheers...ivan.

Thanks for that, I now know what to look out for! is the spoke flywheel what they call a bruston flywheel?

Cheers Steve

hi, yes it is what is called the bruston flywheel but it is slightly different (narrower). here is a pic of the lister on its new trolley i made for it today, (my first attempt at trolley making). cheers... ivan.

Hi Ivan,

the large fuel tank is quite unusual, i gather not many were sold, i have one myself, but its is the later type (and tank cooled), and is mounted as per the later normal sized tanks were fitted from (i think) spec 17 onwards.

Cheers.

What a wonderful engine the D is. Imagine the collection of engines the D would bring alone, if you had one of every type.

I have played with engines for a while and had a few, but I have never not had a D in my shed.

At the moment it is a 1933 shaftie I bought off the club stall at the very last Tatton Park.

Spec 10s are a rare and seldom seen bird. You have a nice collection of Ds, thanks for sharing.
