I have an early Merlin nose case, with the gears & output shaft. If interested, zap me an e-mail and I'll get you a picture.

Gary,
I will ask the man in charge. If you know anyone who might have parts that can help us get our third and fourth engine running can you drop me a note?
Thanks

We are also looking for the fuel transfer pip that connects the carb to the fuel accelerator adapter as well as magneto caps,if cap is useable and all the terminal bakelite ends and associated metal parts and springs are in the cap. We are also looking for Merlin 224 header tanks and thermo expansion pressure relief valves. We are also in need of 2 propellor rubber anti vibration mounts that fit behind the spinner backplate.
