Early 10/2
« on: October 15, 2020, 11:47:01 AM »
Purchased this 10/2 for my personal collection. It is an early one that has several unusual features. Wet type injectors with feeler pins. The first style replaceable element fuel filter etc.  No frost damage and no broken or mangled parts. I do need to rid it of the India exhaust!
It goes in line behind several others but I am anxious to get it going.

Well done. I am familiar with the idea that “it goes in lone behind several others” lol

The attached fuel tank (rural mail box shape) is a nice design I haven't seen before.  All around, it looks like it's been well cared for.  No doubt it will be another of your fully restored gems.  Bravo on this find, Butch!

I deleted my prior post.  My apologies to Vdubnut, who has always been a gent.

I see the magnetic bed trucks are in the UK also, and have same experiences.
Nice engine!
