Evenin' all,
reading the Amanco restoration article in SEM tonight, I was struck by two points which puzzled me. I freely admit to knowing little about Amancos apart from recognising the common ones, and admiring the bigger models.
The writer made great play of using the correct Whitworth taps and making replacement nuts to the correct Whitworth sizes. Did Associated Manufacturers use Whitworth fasteners in the 1914-16 period?
Later he mentions that Amanco cranks are very solid castings. Surely they were forgings?
Comments would be welcome.
