Wow! That is very nice. Complete with box, hanging tag, steering rod, and burner. Excellent condition and unfired. You did good.

I’m happy to learn that yours takes a solid fuel burner. My 6-spoke came without a burner. I read the year one cars used a hard to find methanol burner, so I’ve been looking for one. The bottom burner area on my roadster looks exactly like yours, so I now think it takes a solid fuel burner. Those are available.



Yeah it came with everything, a couple of pamphlets, a funnel, and a full box of Mamod fuel tab's.
I have seen some first year models with the meth burner that were used so I'm thinking this one is
from right after the switch.
