As far as I know they can scan (not 100% sure) if not Bunnings can scan then go to Wairau Paint

Welcome

Hi John,
I will get some better pics over the weekend and post them up.

The PVC was /is 2 bits glued together then the top layer had a thread cut in it with a round nose cutter then I covered it in primer and another layer of glue.

As far as I know it was painted as assembled parts then the filler plug was changed out for a clean one, the bolts were also changed.

PS does the cat know were it’s name comes from?

I don't think it is going to be Cello Tape (unless the cat was found in a sticky mess)

looks like it would have been real deep in the water?

Looks like it may have been sitting in some water?

I will have to dig out my bits and have a look. Where is the number stamped ( I haven't looked so I have no clue) and there is not enough bits to make an engine or even start looking for the rest of it.
Like the rest of us I will keep them here just in case some one needs a bit.

I'm thinking picture framing shops. I'm sure it was used on old picture frames.

You might be right there!

That is a lot of money for an engine that is seized and has a cracked block!

I have one or two bits for one of those... flywheel, magneto and base, gearbox (no prop) drive shaft
I will dig it out and have a look / take some pics of it.
You pay the shipping and the bits are yours
