THEO'S GARAGE OF ENGINES
Evening,
A photo of some of the engines in forum member Theo's garage.
He is happy to have a chat with anybody who wants to talk engines.





I think Theo told me that this Lister A is a 1926, and he tells me that it the first of 3 engines to come out of the factory in this model. I will try to get some more info on this engine for forum members. It is a rare find.



Regards
Martin

Hi Paul,
I will send you a PM with Theadors telephopne number, he would be pleased to have a chat with you about the Gardner.
Best bit is thats only half of Theos workshop, thats just the storage bit!!!!!!
Will be posting a few more Pics for Theadore in the coming days.
Cheers
Mart.

My friend has a Gardner like that in his Narrowboat. They make very nice boat engines, a really nice sound with the right exhaust setup. His is the usual grey colour though.

Hi Paul,
I will have a chat with Theo and get him to write down the details and dates of his engines, then I will post onto the forum for him.
Still have some stuf to put on for him, but not been able to over the weekend due to work commitments.

That petter M is a nice set up, would love one if I had the space and a way to move it, had a chance of one when I lived in Corsham, but couldnt move it about,
Whats the engine between the Gardner and the Amanco? looks a odd thing.
Just seen the base, Hamworth
very nice machine,
Cheers Steve

Re: THEO'S GARAGE OF ENGINES
Looks like I got the date of Theo's Lister A wrong.
Just seen it says 19-9-23 on it, so its a 1923 and not 1926 as I have stated!!!
