Not made up my mind as yet don't think I'll be looking for a buyer but might need to find a victim....found this pic on the tinternet.nice stand..

Oh gawd, it's looking to breed with a darlek....

Fuel cap not playing ball I'm assuming it's a screw on job tried boiling water over it not playing...

Have you tried putting cap in vice and turning the tank?

Put the entire thing in some petrol and let it soak. the cork will be dry and stuck to the tank. if you put it in the vice you will damage the cap and cork.
time is your friend!

No id numbers on this wee carb i require a banjo are they all interchangeable ?? Cheers china's...

It looks a bit like a Bing?
I could make you one if it comes to that. Just need to know the size

Did you get the fuel cap off?

Fuel cap still soaking in diesel/petrol I see a couple on the bay but whether they fit or not is a different story..

I love the look of that electric. Any attempts to run it yet?
