Re: Marston or Seagull ? ON.760
throttle levers and props.
perhaps a longshaft exhaust tube and water delivery pipe?
could also do with a copper mag cover and "villiers magneto" rope pulley if you've got one

Re: Marston or Seagull ? ON.760
Prop spoken for, throttle lever not correct, keeping exhaust and drive tube, so I can put mine back to long shaft.
Flywheeel, mag and small rope pull spoken for.
What does that leave, gearbox and power head, carb looks a little newer .
Will know more tomorrow.

Picked up SD , good condition.
Green paint on flywheel.
Have emailed Rene about the bits he wants.
Adrian, the tank support is not Ali, and the tiller arm is steel. This must be a late SD perhaps, I will take the cylinder off it looks good.
If anyone need bits let me know, gearbox is good and stamped.

Stripped down the ON, looking OK.
Cast a new rubber cushion hub, Shore A 70. Bore is good, very surprised by condition of piston, little wear to rings.
This will be a clean and rebuild, and adapt an SD tank, so should be quick.

Here is a picture of the cushion hub.
Two part rubber is easy to use, Shore A 70 should be plenty hard enough..

Tank cut and shut under way.
Cut out the neck, spin it round and weld back in.
Simple hopefully.

Re: Marston or Seagull ? ON.760
Solder or braze? Will you have to fasten strips on the inside to maintain the original height?

The steel is near 16 gauge so no problems there, will take a bit of heat.
Will post pictures.

Ah yes, steel, not paying enough attention. Seems to come with age.
