Love the open valve gear.

I like the hoe.

You could have painted it.

Looks really nice now. Good job.

Stick a roll cage on and join the Four Wheel Drive Club.

I did.

Vids been blocked due to "insecure encryption protocol", whatever that is. Belay that. Working now.

How many trannies are you rebuilding, Chris? Looks enough parts for 4 there.

That's just the job, Chris. It was the pivot the cable attaches to that I needed to see. I really must take more photo's, BEFORE I take things apart.

That's another option for you Iain.

Thanks Richard. I was thinking the cable clip was horizontal, not angled. Chris. That looks a different set up.

I think I've worked it out now Mark. But to be on the safe side a good pic' would be welcome. I can't set it up anyway, 'till I get the fan guard done and on.

A little more progress this afternoon. Carb and air filter fitted. Seat fitted. Drive belt back on. Starter motor fitted. Inside of belt guard and inside opposite side cover painted. Some of the throttle linkage connected. Here I've hit a snag. How the cable connects is not clear on my photo's. Or in the manual print out I have and though the same engine as the C-125, the linkage is not the same. Anyway, here's some photo's.

Had a ridge tile come off when I lived near Garstang. Landed on my Morris Travellers roof, then onto my A60 vans bonnet, stopping just short of the windscreen. Good idea with the port BTW.

Nice!

Wait till the carb and air filter are on.

You are having fun. You know that they say. "Where there's a will, there's relatives a way."

They'll not mate you know.

Managed to get a bit more done today. Kind of commuted 'tween workshop and house. Prep a part, prime and into the house to dry. Back out to repeat and so on.. Got the carb cleaned up and painted. Ready to fit. Did think about polishing it, then sanity returned. Air filter back plate painted and ready to fit. Seat to fender parts all finished ready to fit. Starter motor painted and ready to fit. Belt guard and opposite side panel cleaned up and insides primed. Considering the diabolical weather here, Freezing gale force wind, sun, rain and sleet taking turns about, I'm rather pleased with my efforts. P.S. Ok! Photo's tomorrow. Maybe!

Some how I don't think Nigel will doing the riding. Don't you mean good luck to the poor old moped?

I like that. Methinks your going to have to do a bit more garage building.

I did wonder what was at the back. How many Ransomes is that now, Johnathan? Not counting the lawn mowers.

Is that half of one on the right? Pointing skywards.
