• I'm sorry Nick, but that engine looks just a bit too dirty and scruffy to add to your fine collection. Heck, it is even missing some key parts.
  
  I think you'd best just re-box that poor dilapidated beast and send it off to my place, where dirty and scruffy engines like that one can properly feel at home!!!    ;c)

  It was bad enough having one 50 here waiting for a deep cleaning, now I’ve somehow found two of them in the past month that need the same amount of cleaning!!!   
  
  Winter needs to get here soon so I can have some down time to spend on these…

• The new arrival has cuts in the underside where the later model does not… Mike has confirmed that his red horseshoe 50 also has these cuts
