My only Stuart...which still haven´t seen any attention, after years on the "to do" list.

It is a very wellbuilt engine, and certainly deserves more, so will have to see if i can´t get around to it sometime soon.

Nick,
no one needs 2 stuart scores! You might have to sell one of them to me! you have a few i still need, so your photos have given me a new interest in seeking out those missing from my collection. i will have to post some pics as well.

Unfortunately the red and green one has some cracks in the casting that were not shown in the ebay listing, it has the wrong/smaller flywheel and is a little wobbly. When Giovanni listed the pale green, factory built Score for sale, I had to have it!  ;D

Fantastic collection Nick, i think my favourite would have to be the Stuart one-one which i had the pleasure of steaming a few years ago.

Yes, one of my favorites as well! Here is your video of the one-one



And here is my noisy airbrush compressor test run

I'm very surprised you let that mint boxed factory finished Stuart S50 go!  :o

I was up to four S-50's, so one had to go... I have two early round cranks and a good running later example that I want to add a governor to. That NIB model was too nice for me to modify and sat on the shelf for many years un-used.

My 10H from Edrock is a real authentic looking runner. It has a patina that screams street cred. I am really attached to this one.



And my first Stuart was way overpaid on eBay, but it impresses my friends and wifey likes it too. It's never been steamed and will need some gasket work before I do. The governor was slightly wobbled and not functional due to needing to be fiddled with. Now it runs like a champ. And the price I paid was not too bad after all. These things sell pretty good!
 Some not as nice as mine sell for a lot more than I paid.

If you play with fire, you're gonna get burned.
