Nice job!

Well done on bringing another one back to life Kev, it looks very nice indeed and seems to run well too.   I look forward to seeing one of these restored engines at a rally later this year.

Yes, the linseed oil is almost dry now on the bits I've done.  Just waiting for some warmer weather so I can get on with painting some more of the 'after side', I tried a bit last weekend but it was too cold and I had to give up!    I'll do an update on 'Before and After's restoration thread when I've made a bit more progress.   

A great looking engine and a great restoration job - really smart. Sounds good too...

I will have to add one to my wish list so thanks for bringing them to my attention - as you said the early models are not so common or known about (especially to newbies like me) so it’s nice to see and read the thread on its re-birth!

Nice job Squire Kev.
