I have no idea about it. Listing simply says in good working order.

Going to pick it up next week hopefully. Paying cash on collection so if it isnt a goer I wont buy it. But a 600+ 100% feedback seller so Im confident.

I fancy stripping and refurbing it when I get it anyway.

Mine was a really nice pair of Bauch & Lombe i's sunnies, matte black frames and tortoiseshell arms for $52, including $20 postage. The frames are perfect, but the lenses are badly scratched, which I knew, so I'm getting new lenses with MAR coating made up by my optician. They look fantastic, I'm dead chuffed with them.

Dead easy to work on.

They made em propper in them days. 😉

Bet it'll just need the carb striping and cleaning.

Oh and a starter pawl and rope. 😉

Edit.

Just seen the other picture with the kickstart.

AWSUM.

Double edit.

My first ever job was as a lawnmower mechanic. Great fun pissing about with small engines all day. 😀

But bigger then that, and it's wooden framed. Going to pick it up tomorrow.

Really quite stoked, I'm gonna cover it in graphs, penises, matrices, and vector calculus. Got it proper cheap as well, less then a tenner.

A Berlingo I think, delivered to our door for free.

Should have been a lawnmower but been outbid twice tonight. Excepting that beastiality of an excuse for a lawnmower above, if anyone has a large petrol lawnmower for sale email me from profile.

Stoner, that's the worst dalek I've ever seen.

Me: Handbrake cables for the car. Some boring passengers consider it unnerving when it rolls off down hills.

It wont be close to you standards stoner just a 9.99 stovax one. Grandad suggested i get one when he bought me an ecofan for the stove - they swear by their eco fan - heat the entire house by stove no boiler use in last 2 years - prior to this they had trouble getting the heat round the house.

Ill need to change to a woodburner instead of multifuel to get that level of efficiency !

Id love an eco fan too (I made my own which was amusing, but its nowhere near as effective as a proper impeller)

I think the stovax one is still over priced for such a basic bit of kit.

My parents have no where for an eco fan due inset woodburner . They just use a low powered silent fan to blow heat about and keep the breast cool - after writing off three mirrors and re doing plaster 4 or 5 times ...... My mum can fair keep the fire hot. - when it was open coal fire she'd burn through the grates usually once every 6 -8 months !

Stoner - avoid the Allen if you've kids/dogs etc as they are absolutely lethal - my Dad had one, which he actually scrapped, which was a first for him as he never throws anything away.

And an Inca Planer/Thicknesser, for £58 was mine:

We used to have a allen scythe at the farm I worked on, pig to start, but once you got it going, scared the nuts off anyone in front of it 😉

Fairly sure its still there and the farm and its not that many miles from you Stoner (Flyford), over there tonight collecting wood, can have a word with the boss if its of interest?

Would be a project case by now?
