How about l buy it so you can purchase parts.... might open up the horizons ☺☺

[tambikeboy]

Seems to be a problem finding the parts to start with I'll bear you in mind though

Tam just zoomed in on your picture, JM 1496, that really is a Marston ignition, about 1937 from an ON or an OP, with the correct points cover!

Sorry I doubted you, but I see "Marston ignition" so often on 1944-45 bits, the expression "Truthful Scotsman" just isn't easy to say!

[tambikeboy]

Spot on china definitely an ON Marston searching shed for omhs meter now will test l8er only two type of true scotchman the ones that go to the big hoose and those who manage to jump the fence feck going back there.

my dear chap ....obviously a straight and honest Scotsman ..

My ON 1382, proper finned block and everything, is crying out for its proper Marston top ....previous owner bastardised it with a later villiers ignition

what do you want for it ££ or spares

i've been absent for a while, but now I'm back

Did you get any of my PM's about this?
I'm not sure if any of them got through to you or not.

Yes Jon got your pms back in the uk now iv crossed international waters and done my stunt on lough derg (nuns get horny too) mybe you never got my reply s I'm needing to swap these parts rather than sell china..

[headdownarseup]

That's the first time i've heard a scotsman say no to money?

Jon

[Hugz]

Makes sense to convince a collector to part with some rare parts with the barter of other equally, or in this case, an even rarer part. Very canny of Tam. I've learnt something......

[timberman2004]

Hmmmm...really need that ignition...
what parts are you looking for ?

I can have a root round in the nests of the flock of the 22 residents

[headdownarseup]

As i don't have any FVP parts with which to trade, carry on Neal.

I'll find an ignition from somewhere eventually. It doesn't matter...
