I think not, I would like to know why
Mamod did this, Anyone care to hazard a guess ?

The seller was telling me that he had
Had the SE4 for 35 years, and only fired it once
He was also telling me he sold the
Twin cylinder Minor 2 on eBay a few years ago
And it made £1400 ..........
Not got around to firing the SE4 yet
Had a look at the whistle and the boiler
Has been sealed from the inside
Not sure why Mamod did this .............

Just had a look through these pics again. Mike whats the piece of brass on one of the ends of the pistons? It doesn't seem to be there on the other side?
Cheers MM
