First time I've seen three mercs as back up for a Seagull or is that a reflection on the Seagull's reliability

Anyway reassembled,now I need a throttle cable,these Seagulls may be bullet proof,but they ain't havenaclue proof

Maybe I should move this to restoration projects

That got a whack as well,mine that is

Anyway here she is in all her glory.

I'm thinking this is the reason whoever worked at her before opened her up.Though compression was 100psi

That piston looks a bit mushed? At least the 40+ is popular so you can find bits. Enjoying the project, would have been in the bin by now here...

Does anyone know the name of a good psychiatrist

She looks pretty much there to me but then I'm no expert,a couple of clamp shoes/plates ,a plug lead and a good clean up

Nice one, real barge pusher that. Newer Siba recoil is a definite bonus..
