I just got this today as a throw away. I had not idea about it and have spent the last three hours looking on the net for some info on it. What lead me here was i notice the engine had IRVINE on it " so my search began".
I did start to think perhaps it was a custom build as i was not getting any info at all, then i came across a few pictures of what looked like the item i had stripped down in a box ready to start cleaning.
I have noticed there are some part i need to replace so i might need to ask for places that might stock spairs.

Well that is a project ;)


Little note, Once you have attached your pictures you need to click the " insert " button on each or " Insert all " for them to be added and visable in your post :) Cheers Andy.

I'm beginning to suspect there was a period in the 80s when the only only type of fastener available in the UK were 1" to 1 1/2" Pozidrive #8s ;)
