No doubt it ran fine when treated to a little easystart squirted into the carbs.  ;)

Be interesting to see the top of that piston on the combustion face. If it's just been damaged by corrosion and removing the barrels then it should have no other signature of damage if it's not been run after the event.

Some more photos Nigel. You can see all the rust on the top of the piston and then i cleaned it up on the wire wheel. You can actually see where the rust has 'eaten' in to the piston and where the few deeper holes are, i picked out rust particles corresponding to those shapes.
