Krawlr over on vintage diesels at the stak says he is going. I zipped him a PM and told him you were looking for board members. Check out his aluminum idler gear thread LOL.

I saw one nice Lister 6-1 CS in the flea market with a radiator and heavy flywheels.  Also an Indian twin.  I saw none on display but out of the thousands of engines there, I could have missed one.  Although my eye is pretty sharp for spotting a Lister!

My dad and I were there on Thursday.

On our last tour of the Swap Meet area, I saw those also.

The CS was chugging away on the back end of a trailer, so I could not get to close to see much. I took a couple of pictures, I am not sure how they will turn out, I have not downloaded them off the camera.  The "Omega" twin was in the back of a pick up truck.

Sadly, they were both out of my price range, or I would be the proud owner of a piece of history.
