I know someone that has the remains of one of those "In a rhubarb patch" ....
"Theres a Koppel under me woodpile and a Motor Rail in a Nissen Hutch (but that one has his injectors out). RH nearly got started up last year but medical problems of those conspiring put the lid on it. Used to annoy the neighbours with smoke and noise (no silencer) in the 1990's."
I'll tell you more when i see you next :p:

I love the way these "Heath Robinson" ideas come about ingenuity at its best! Or is it "going green" and utilizing what you have?
Don't think I've ever posted anything in here!!

I don't know if this counts but as a young boy/man I still consider this a form of vehicle
