All free to good home, or bad home for that matter, I'll post at cost. Manuals might be £3, thinner things if they go large letter about £1.50. pay with Paypal.

73 pages, black and white on unglossy paper, probably didn't trouble the best sellers lists but some fine old shit in it and it's fairly clean. Large letter and now gone.

Early thinner soft cover version of Vizards a series bible but still with gratuitous photo of his missus

MGB manual, but not as much as previous publication.

Stains on some pages, its only oil.

Very battered XS 650 manual. Much used, I got through 2 of these bikes over the years and though OK never found them to be any less trouble prone than our twins. Very well produced, puts Haynes to shame.

Finally, will no one rid me of this poxy saw? Now my local scrapper has gone I can't give the bastard thing away despite it being full of life, well it jumps about like it is. 2 spare blades.

[strangeangel]

Can I bag the ambulance book if it's not already gone please?

[cros]

Ambulance book is yours, Pm your address and I'll post on Monday.

He looks well

I think he looks younger now than he did in 1979! See what driving a Maxi does for you.

Much appreciated.

Indeed; where for art thou?

Down the shed.

Having meandered back through the thread Cros(and more importantly the saw of brokenness) is apparently located near Bourne, and presumably somewhere near Peterborough as well. It is therefore fecking miles away from me. Bums.

 

Edited for pie people aversion.

∆∆∆ Here's my address so you can pop round and nick my Morris while I'm asleep- keys under the drivers mat, dont give it too much choke, mind the pothole on the way out of my road.

Attention to the 2cv lickers on here ( other shite cars are available!). Years ago I had a couple of 2cvs ( when they were cheap and sold them just before they ballooned in price!) and was a member of the club. Found a couple of 2cvGB mags. Dated May and June 2008. One not so careful owner (me) so are in a slightly foxed condition. Not rust or coffee stains, pages are not stuck together ( sign of a misfire?! - I'm sure I would have noticed as they are only 2 cylinder!). Any way the current millstone says get rid of this crap so they are up for grabs. Free of charge just pm your address. May split.

WANTED: Has anyone got or know of a single phase tyre changer/machine going cheapish?

 

A mate and I are both utterly hacked off with being bent over to have motorcycle tyres changed - motorcycle tyres arent dear, but places seem to charge through the nose for fitment, the local bloke who isnt too expensive is a pain in the arse being unreliable. We've done it manually and already have weights, air, a balancer  even a manual bead breaker etc, but really want a semi auto/full auto machine. At the moment we are seriously considering buying a machine new (the one we are looking at is £650ish), used stuff on ebay seems to go for top money.

 

If anyone knows of one for sale for sensible money in working order dansarf or in whales please reply or pm me.

If you're remotely handy with wiring get a 3 phase one and fit an inverter to it.

[pilninggas]

If you're remotely handy with wiring get a 3 phase one and fit an inverter to it.

even 3 phase changers are decent money. if i have to go down that route, rather than using a 1ph-3ph converter, id put a single phase motor in it.

 

Really want 1ph, 12v or all-air though.

Would anyone be interested in an old mower?

 

I have an old Mountfield petrol lawn mower I was given that needs a new pull cord and a bit of fettling to get running. Its sat in my shed for a further two years, one of the bolt heads has rounded to get the pull starter housing off but once this is sorted and a new pull cord fitted it should run. 

I'm in Leicester, I am moving house and having a clear out

MK2 Orion rear bumper wanted

[cros]

Just turned out another Jerry can. It's a German one with 1969 stamped on the side, fairly sure it came with my Munga, date would be about right.. STILL AVAILABLE

 

 

Very smart old parts lists rebound by Morris Minder centre a few years back. None of my usual grubby paw marks all over it neither, about 3£ posted at a guess.

Still available.

Very nice fat thing includes potted history an' tings.

Haynes triumph twins, usuable but tatty.

Armstrong Squiddly road Tests annual, minty condition, includes tests of both models of small 'Sapphires'. Buggeration, they're awful looking. It goes without saying I'd have one. Now gone.

All free, collect or pay for Mr Royal Mail to stash it in his pigeon hole for a week or two. South lincs.
