So, what's this then?
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I've posted the part number under Desperately Seeking.
It's different to a 400 as I have a spare one of those.

It's an F1 Phil, green clocks, the F2 got blue clocks like the K3.
Plus F1 had fork gaiters fitted, F2 didn't.
Orcade-Ian:
Thanks Ken,
Yes, I had sussed from a brief history on the 550 that it must be an F1 - I think the F2 was available in metallic maroon (like my mates new one back in '77) or metallic blue and broad gold stripe.
I believe Orange was F0 and F1 and as you say, no gaitors on the F2 - could have all been changed of course in 40+ years - I'll have to wait for frame number when it arrives :o. 2 slightly different clock face colours too - but I'm not after winning pots.

Sesman:
F1, even better. Nice that it seems to complete with all the important bits present.

No doubt I'll be round your place begging for help and info. Why do I keep buying work?? I could just sit and watch day-time TV.

Think you’re a bit too creative and active for day time TV. 🤣
I have some new bits and pieces Ian for CB550, fittings etc depending how deep you need to go into this resto.
Went a bit crazy on the ordering at times during my 550 rebuild. You’d be welcome to them if any good.
