After finishing Bill & Ben Pam’s been on about her list so thought I’d do a few bits. We had some gate post’s snapped through the winter and a hand rail but I didn’t know the gates were so rotted, I found some pallet wood that’s almost the right size so repaired all thee gates and concreted in new posts, finished off with a coat of creosote that I happened to have in stock. Ive got to finish the hand rail but earned lots of brownie points.

A large box of goodies arrived today from Wallfish in the USA, one and a half Tiny Tiger generators. With the "spare" engine I had with the correct fittings and having a look in the O&R spares stock, I managed to attach generator to engine. I was going to make up a base but as I don't have the correct tank I might leave it on the base its on for now... The second unit needs an exhaust, anyone got a spare one please ? Both units now on display with their buddies, lol

Not that the GT14 needs it, but this will end up on the front of bendy - when I finish the hitch arms that I've been making for 2 years Here you go - the old 5 gallon water tank from the loft - filled with concrete... perfect 100lb weight that once painted red will look factory. best get that front hitch sorted...

I got a care package in the mail last week look at that is a coil cover wallfish was kind enough to send me one many thanks I will post a pic when I get it on there. The first one is the one I made. ( But I think you could figure that out on your own)

NEWS FLASH!!!! just got some time to work on last months project this month. it been to long time without working on anything I was having withdraws . made some brackets and a new stand repaired all the fuel line scrounged up some more parts and see what happens when you get off your a$$.

Hi, here's a sales brochure for the Mk2 Gazelle although if you look closely, the wider pictures are of Mk1 Westwood's as they have the flat footrests. Would like to see some pictures of your W11

Yes that is the idea I had to sort the front wheels, I just need to find some donor wheels. They remind me of 70's wheel barrow wheels mine measure up at 8 3/4" .

looking good - currently got two Westwoods - T1600 and W11. Trying to pull more of the history of the early models together on them if anyone know more. Looks like early models are 1980'ish with gear change in the usual place and steel grills? Anyone got any old brochures on the early models?

So its back at mine and its worse than i thought. It sounds really good but 3 axle mounts have snapped, the 2 front ones and one back one that can be welded. The electric start doesnt work and its really rusty all over. Its still getting a full restoration starting in a few months so ill keep you all updated video-1588623966.mp4

Stand looks good to me.muffler are hard to find like air filters and cooling baffles they take them off and threw them away. some things are just hard to find....

I just noticed it will need pedal rubbers, throttle cable,clutch cable, and I have no idea if the clutch is any good. Silly bits really I am talking to Chris at the moment about the tank and the tyres. I freed up and lubricated the drive train too.
