a winter project....

i bought this engine from a feller back on the 7 September this year and i forgot all about it.i had it collected on Wednesday 2nd November (PM) and it arrived here one the 3rd of November (AM).that's a 48pallet service from national pallets (ive posted the link in the transport section for you all to see).finally got round to taking it off the pallet on Sunday (6th Nov) thanks to my son for that.
i did take 4 photos but 3 has disappeared,its a 3hp international m P/P all complete and came with a new hard wood trolley as well,it needs the mag putting on it and timing up some fuel and away it goes...
theres been one on eBay in wiltshire for £450 and hasn't had one bid,and it has some bits missing,so that makes mine a very cheap engine.

Nice looking engine Mike what are your plans? Strip and repaint or just a wipe with an oily rag.

Stu.

get it running and make sure it runs on kerosene ok then oily rag it...
then it mite be going on a trip to swindon to a mate of mine,as he wants first offer on it..
so will have to see how it goes,as like i said i haven't a shed so its sat at a mates place with all the others..
regards,mike...

Mike did you get my email about the other M type?

Stu.

regards,mike...

nice looking engine there mate , remember what said on the phone to you feller ... keep it original though mate !

Matt...your first on the list mate IF i decide to sell it.....don't worry feller..

regards,mike.

Matt save your pennies coz I think it might be to heavy for the old man to move about

Stu.

ohhhh
less of the old man feller..it is ok when you have your sons about..
if Matt want it then we will have to talk money,im not giving it away mate....
regards..mike..

Mike just get the JD sorted as that's what I'm interested in, oh yeah it's mates rates

Stu.

Quote from Mike I'm not selling it wish I never sold the last one.

I know you won't sell it Mike but look out for another

STU..
i have another in Kent,but its not up for grabs yet,but im first on the list as hes a mate...
what you going to give me for mine then???????
and don't take the p--s mate...theres no mates rates nowadays...
there all out to rip you off..as ive found out the hard way,but it all stored up in the gray stuff....
they know who they are,and they have to live with the guilt....
regards,mike...

Mike it would be around the £1500 in first class order. If I got that it would be the last engine I ever bought apart from the odd small BSA or Jap to mess about with. So I'm not in any great hurry as yet to get it.

Stu.

ok mate..if it comes up at the rite price i will have it,then this one will go up for sale,as i will need the room...
there is also a Bradford for sale and some implements to....will call him to find out what there is going to be...
also a 5hp petter as well for sure....
he has to pack engines up as hes not to good health wise,its a shame as hes a cracking feller...
regards..mike....

That's great Mike, like I say I'm in no hurry even a few years would be fine.

Stu.

if it comes up it will be going as i cant keep it that long...or i mite even have another clear out..
will see what happens....
regards,mike...
