Another GT14....not........

[meadowfield 2,754]

don't know if any of you saw this, or bid on it - nice mix and match GT14

 

 

only it's the stickers on the hood and engine from a GT14 attached to an early 70's Raider

Yes Mark, saw that and had a chuckle. look's like a 73 14hp 8speed with the wrong stickers............. Belgium Factory Hiccup?.

[meadowfield 2,754]

it's not a factory model.. I hope

 

The hood decals are both from the right hand side - so have been added at some point. It's got snow plough brackets tho'

An interesting buy Mark.. what are your plans for it?

 

P.S.  I know of a real GT that could do with a new engine if you plan to break it up..

[meadowfield 2,754]

I didn't buy it - I've already got some GT14 decals...

 

your engine is fine, just needs some TLC, clean the fuel pump and carb, fresh oil and spark plug, service the starter and swap that flywheel. sorted! D

Not guilty - I didn't even consider a flutter on that one despite being fairly close to me as I'm trying to avoid typing in 'wheel horse' on the bay at present! I have just enough horses for now and resto work in stock for the next couple of years at least.

 

Despite the wrong decals and being a non-runner I'd have thought it might have fetched a little more than that.

I saw that also, thought about joining the 14 club, then I remembered my Commando is still in bits, Charger to deal with after that. Four is enough for me

....Yet I keep looking. :scratchead:

Hey Rex, if your Commando is in bits, what are your Kiddies going to ride during the Hols this Summer?.

......................................I also keep tabs on what's floating around on the market.

Would the 'Charger' be the 'No Name 12 Auto' that you outbid me on? If so wasn't that Feb last year... and you still haven't finished it !!!

That will teach me to try and do replies after only 2 coffee's in the morning !!

Make it 3 cups  in the hope it helps to prevent repeating yourself         ............Did I just say that?.

Richard, with three running machines the kids are covered, they seem to like 'no name auto 12 charger' best (hydro, loud and faster than the others).

Andy, same tractor... and I haven't finished it because...I haven't started it yet. When it arrived I had a rush of blood and stripped down the Commando, exhausted from the effort I've been resting since. Soon be time for round 2. :thumbs:

[wheeledhorseman 579]

Quite understand Rex - with money still burning a hole in my pocket I bought the C-100 after missing out on the Charger. It's been working hard ever since and the winter resto didn't happen even though I have the decals for it. Hopefully a project for this winter.
