Hello From Aberdeenshire

Hi All,  
I'm now semi retired with plenty of old stuff to restore. My late Father was a millwright and a stationary engine agent mainly Lister and Petter. Over the years my father had collected a few old small engines which have lain in a  dry environment untouched for somewhere around 45 years possibly more.

I have probably too many interests as I run a couple of classic cars, have a couple of motorcycles, three classic tractors with various tractor implements. Like other I also try to keep the wife and the dog happy.......... life can be challenging.        

I've newly completed the restoration of a Wolsley engine and built a trolley and wheels for it.  I've now made a start to restoring a Amanco Hired Hand but will be looking for help to find some missing governor linkage parts.  

Waiting in the background is a Petter M type, a nice wee Fowler at least a couple each of common Lister's and Petter's. Hopefully I'll live long enough

Cheers for now, chuffchuff (Jim Leslie)

Hello and welcome!

Sounds like you have plenty to keep you busy...

Hi Jim, welcome aboard, sounds like you will be busy.

Hello fellows, Yes busy right enough and struggling to find enough hours in the day but looking forward to getting torn-in to the old engines and give them a breath of life/petrol once more.

Having a wee play with downloading photos so please bare with me here. I'll try and add a photo of the Wolseley Ive done-up. Here goes.

Hi Jim and a warm welcome to the forum.

Please post a few more photos of your collection in Pride And Joy - ditto,  your latest project in New Projects/Restorations
Good luck.

Welcome sir

Hi, nice looking Wolseley there.

Chris
