  Nick....I was amazed when I saw my bid held.  I had actually bid higher.
Perhaps others noted the electrical cord and did not want it for that
reason.  I did not notice the cord, but it would not have stopped me from
bidding. So far, perhaps my best deal to date.  I added a semi-clear photo
of the dynamo terminals.  The one on the right needed adjusting, the one
on the left grounds to the frame.

  The first step to fixing the heater problem requires de-soldering the
steampipe to free up the boiler.  It will take a while to develop the
nerve to do so.  At least it is soft soldered.

Having fun so far,
Wayne
