Hi there

I would guess the kettle is about 90% original although I have to hang my head in shame its in a bit of a state. I bought it about 15 years ago last had it running about 5 or 6 years ago. So as you can imagine it needs loads of TLC. I don't know about the crank seals. last time I started it it smoked like a train. more than usual.If I can unseize the callipers I'll drag it out and get some pics.
cheers
