Rocboni 257 #4 Posted February 29, 2016 Guessing a Later MG2 or MG5 judging by the steel ID plate. The magnetos are fairly common, I'm sure you'll have it up and running soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

expeatfarmer 591 #24 Posted March 2, 2016 Is it worth having the other two to break for spares? Tracks and drive wheels don't look too worn , never seen a yellow one before is it ex local authority? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tracks and drive wheels don't look too worn , never seen a yellow one before is it ex local authority? no idea if it's the original colour jonathan, the other ones were another mg2 and one with a watercooled sachs that was seized, he did have an replacement engine for it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
