The Rotax Cutout I'm getting

This is that later 1920s cutout which I'm getting. This is coming from Australia. If you have one of these and want to sell it, please get in touch using the contact page on www.vintagesunbeams.blogspot.com because I know someone who wants one!



Edwardian Rotax cutout

Here are pics of an Edwardian aluminium-boxed Rotax Cutout which I have just bought, I'm swapping it for a later brass-boxed one that's right for the Twincam.

Two more parts on the way: The pump (reproduction) and tank unit for the Nivex petrol gauge I bought at Beaulieu.

NOS Autovac

I've bought another Autovac. This one is in superb condition and has never been on a car. I think the pipe ends and air inlet on the top are later in design, but I can use period ones from another Autovac.

It's exactly the right size and the internals are perfect.

By sheer coincidence, after I bought it, I found out it was in Farnham, just 10 mins drive away from me.
