Luton Bowman PW202 OvertypeHere are a few pics of my recently acquired Luton PW202.
This is one of the rarest Lutons and I have to thank MM for alerting me to it and also for uniting me with the correct burner.
I've not made up my mind just how I'm going to proceed with this one, as I've not cleaned it up yet.
Here it is, warts and all.

Looks great!
Is that flywheel original?

Nice one Sandy!
I think such as its rarity I'd leave it as it is! Or see what it looks like cleaned up then decide? At least if you do it that way you can change your mind 
Look forward to the finished article mate

The flywheel is original, but the pulley is an add on.
The correct pulley is behind it.

Thanks,
So did it end at the pulley and just have the shaft sticking out after the pulley?
I kind of like the looks of the add-on.

They've moved the original pulley in, and put the other pulley on the shaft.
I agree, it looks like a nice pulley.

That one will clean up nicely.

The two extra holes in the base plate are interesting. They appear to be in exactly the right places to attach the engine frame of a PW201, so presumably they used the same stock of bases for both models. That's not surprising as most of the other components are the same too.

Well spotted Steve.
I haven't really looked closely at it yet.
That would certainly explain the holes.

That's nice, and the extra pulley looks as if it is off a German accessory.

I'd leave the engine as it is, but repaint the burner

I might just repaint the burner and the centre of the flywheel.
I really need to give it a good clean and steam it first, before I come to any decision.
