In a moment of madness, I have bought an Amanco Hired man (the one pictured in this months SE on the Cheffins sale page as it turned out) It is in "reasonable" and sort of Rally condition but now I have looked at it closely my engineering head has found lots of little things to do like shimming the Mag skew gear, some play in the hit-n-miss linkage etc etc. Then the trolley really wants bigger wheels....and the paint is not that good !!! End result is a pile of bits as I have decided to restore it from scratch and build a new trolley. The reason for me boring you all with this is I can't seem to find anyone who sells head gaskets (this is a water cooled head 2.25hp model). I know I can get one from the States but I would prefer to source one over here. Any suggestions gratefully received
