I have heard of strangely numbered Gulls but I think you may find there should be some letters before the number you have been given ( maybe above? ) and crucially they denote the model, I would ask them to check again then check out the 'ID your seagull' section of the main site.

I have asked them several times to look for some letters, the answer is, there are none, it is unfotunitly at a place far from me, and they don't have a digital camera.
I have had several Seagulls and I know how to find the prod.date.
Thank's for the answer.

Ask if it has nipples for gearbox lubrication. That gives an indication if it is collectable, flat or round exhaust outlet also

I have got my new motor, it is a very fine motor only it is totally dismantled, the cast iron is caput due to frost I think, and I don't know how much is missing. No Hurrays to day, i will try to sell it as parts. Or throw it away. fortunitly the things I really wanted were OK. :? :wink:

There are not many Seagulls here in Denmark, så used spares are hard to come by. To get some from abroad is costly in transportation, and the motor is not a selden one. And I don't think I can find the time.
Any suggestions ? Keep it in the adict ?
I really think it all there , but the ruined cylinder ?

pardon any misspelling.

Keep it for spares. You never know in the future what motors you might come across and need parts for. I have a few motors that I keep for future donor reasons. The four bolter blocks are becoming very hard to source.
