my Petter A1

I have just bought a Petter A1 as my first engine.

Here she is after one week. Still working on a trolley.

Coming along nicely, I did a cosmetic refurb on my A1 and posted the progress in the restorations section, it includes building a suitable trolley if you need any ideas.

Thank you Robotstar5. Yours looks great and sounds nice! I've stuck with the light green paint. The engine driving the pump was interesting. Now I've got an engine, I'll have to look for something for it to drive. That extension pipe for the oil drain was a brilliant Idea as mine will be mounted on a trolley in a similar way.

I like the lighter green paint. I did mine in a lighter green with cream center to the flywheel. I would post photos if only I could work out how to ! Arthur.

Gotta love an air cooled Petter!

Running yet?

Yes, the Petter was running lovely when I had it. It just looked a bit rough! Can't wait to take it to rhe shows next year. Could do with something for it to run though......
