If you wish to add your SD to the register please provide data as per the register headings. Please add your details to this thread. I rarely answer the pm facility.

Webmaster: Please advise how I can download a pdf onto here or if I can send it to you for you to add. Thanks. PDF much clearer.

Hugo, happy to post a higher resolution version.

Please send a copy of the PDF to webmaster@saving-old-seagulls.co.uk and I will post on the forum one way or another.

Also if you are willing to send a copy in the original format you have (word, excel?) I can see about converting/posting it on the main SOS site with your permission. The Little Forty page is a good example of this, offering a permanent searchable reference for the future!

Many thanks,
Andrew

S.D.P. 11287.

Decided to be a "10 pound pom" to me in Perth.

A tad more than 10 quid but it is wonderful.

Had a few IPAs so typing text beyond me Hugo.

Thanks Bruce, I've entered your SDP 11287. That is 5 SDP's now. All #'s between 10500 and 12500 so 1945?

I am a relative beginner here. Have rescued two SD’s and would like to post details.
Can I check your terminology?
References to Bayonet Caps… is that fuel cap?
References to Magneto… where do I find this, is it stamped somewhere near the coil?
(Haven’t started unseizing bolts yet but will share pics.
Thanks

Bayonet cap is indeed fuel cap. Magneto numbers on magnetos with the "coolie hat" flywheel usually have a JM number stamped on the flywheel. This is useful as it is known that the JM numbers were issued out from Villiers in number order, so generally follow seagull production from the early marston engines up to the later SD engines. So its a way of roughly seeing if the magneto is of a similar age to the actual engine.

[Lochaber73]

Brilliant thanks. Very helpful.
More details to follow!
One of my SD’s is a real bitza so not sure how helpful it will be…..
Thanks

Eddie .

[Hugz]

Thanks Eddie.

An early one. Only 5 registered before this one. This would be a good one to restore. I'm assuming no tank (disappeared with the block) or throttle lever or mag coolie hat and nut?
A couple of questions.
Gear lever has no 'patent' inscription and gearbox has nipples on starboard side?

Numbers match perfectly. Has been entered.
