Seems that a previous owner drove this through a superglue factory at some point! I have scraped off an astonishing amount of slapped on and spilt glue, mostly from the frame. The fuel tank is a write off as for some unfathomable reason, the air tanks had been taken off the top edges and glued - badly - to the lower sides, fortunately I do have a spare GP30 fuel tank in the spare parts archive.
This is one of the worst cases of damage repair and overhaul I have tackled for some time, but the effort will be worth it.
Needless to say, the gears are cracked and need replacing, replacement parts are somewhere between here and Ontario at the moment.
