There is bugger all on the site at the moment, so I'm making the most of it, captive audience and all that.
It went something like this.
Out and about today relic hunting, How do you think I found the wife, I spotted a lonely British Seagull.
OK lets see what it is, wipac ignition, not interested and I should have just walked away.
But I didn't walk away, fatal mistake.
Hang on, clench bolt at the front, Dover grip, no logo on the end of the tank, I'm now getting interested, bugger.
How much are you asking for your Seagull? "HOW MUCH", does it come with a yacht then, I still didn't walk away.
A little time later, after some umming and aahing we came to an agreement on price, I should have come to my senses and walked.
Still more than I wanted to pay for it, So I will keep that to myself, it will stop any embarrassment later.
And at the end of all this you would have thought it was something special, something uncommon, a little gem or even a diamond in the rough maybe.
No it was just rough.
Knowing that the wipac ignition that is fitted was later, so I changed that to a Villiers and put the Best for the cover that was on the wipac back on it.
Amazingly even though the wipac flywheel was lacking a little paint, inside was surprisingly good, not that I have any use for it, also the Bakelite Champion plug cap was a bonus.
Fuel system needs a clean and it will run.
And its a 1955-6 SJM.
nice one keith. .......30 bob can't go wrong. ..
