550 F2 started!

[Oddjob]

Yours is a 550 though Roo, much harder to find. 500s are a lot easier.

I’ll shut up then, forgot it was a 500



I’ll add it to the list Gary

First pass with some orange good was given over here by a pal. Told to wear glasses………………..yer think?

They were only in there for 10 mins and back to metal. Not bad for a first pass!
Especially as I only had to rinse it off with hot water and zero scrubbing/shuffling about.

Gotta decent pile going but running out of weight limit, basically, I’m leaving a pair of trainers here and two pairs of knackered jeans to make the weight limit in my suitcase.  I brought stuff out here that was bin it’s last legs so I could leave it when it was time to leave

Scrap yard next week………..exciting! A day rummaging about in a dank field, can’t wait

Those that have requested stuff,l’ll do-my best

I still havent learnt to spell check so just deal with it,......It's me OK?

[Bryanj]

Is that contact breaker box the complete plate or just points?  The Yanks hate Daichi because of quality problems BUT if its 10yr old old stock its probably ok as they were better then

You might have noticed Roo most of my posts are later amended in the futile attempt to defeat my phone's predictive text. I can't spell check on this site either.

I dont know if its period it has a white/very light grey wire covering. The chap had them advertised for over a hundred dollars but i t's the complete plate, condensers, points the lot. The seller came back to me and made me an offer so in the end with Fedex milking it dry, it came to about £60...............bit of a result I thought.

Ken poked it my way on a PM as something he'd stumbled over looking as we do, for other folk, so sent the seller a message but the seller said he didnt have any and that they were listed incorrectly. A week later he contacted me to say he'd found one and did I want it cheap?.......Pope's and silly hats were mentioned and I nabbed it.

The spares I've been sent by Gary will go to make a new, 'refurb' one that can be in the stash for others or indeed for something I'm pondering on at the minute. Either way they wont get wasted and will get a good 'nannying' in the burrow of dreams at teh end of the garden and should deffo either help me out or somebody else on the forum for minimum fuss and zero cost.

Roo, worth it for that mate and way easier than changing all the bits

[Laverdaroo]

Thats what I thought. Is it a crap one then, the box looks quite new. Just so I know
