Hi John it looks like its brass to me so if it is is of a 1946 flat bed

James

LOL It's alright mate

You don't learn if you don't make mistakes  

The 1946 one had a cast engine frame, so did the 47 and 48.

John, I agree with James, providing the whole assembly is original.  As far a value is concerned I guess you have to have someone with a flat base 1949-53 without that assembly, although the brass flywheel could be worth up to $50.00 by itself, based on the fact that James got more than that for an old style whistle alone.

Cheers

I bought a whole 1949 se1 for £20 though

I don't think you can do that anymore James, besides you've got ass & class,  when it comes to buying things,      .  I guess it also depends where you are, and who wants it.

Cheers
