The motor has now been put back together, I still need to spray paint the gear box and the prop, the tank needs a final coat of gloss black and it Seagull transfer.

Note the small diametr down tube, the chrome was poor so I had it Cadmium plated as the platers no longer offer a chrome service.

I reverted to the original silver on the flywheel, the tank needs its gloss black paint, then the tank transfer with some clear lacquer over that to protect it.

The motor can then be sent with the owner to wherever they are headed?
