This might be of interest to some of you:
there are two spare gearboxes plus a few other engine parts as well.

I've sent a message, I'll see what happens, shame it isn't closer to Devon!

Apparently, if you want to discover more details from the "Preloved" website, either it will cost you a fiver as a subscription or you have to wait until 12 days have elapsed.
Perhaps Fleabay isn't so bad after all!
Crumbs, didn't mean to create a problem, also to be found here: https://www.gumtree.com/p/replacement-parts/norton-navigator-engine/1229003142
Preloved at £5 for the year isn't bad, especially if you get first dibbs.

Looks interesting. Shame it's so far away from Co. Tyrone - I doubt if Ryanair would allow me to carry this as cabin baggage.

Spoke to vendor, seems a nice guy. I've bagged the complete navigator engine but there is also a spare navi engine partly dismantled and a jubilee in a similar state. Not 100% complete. No stators or rotors either. He also has 2? sets set of navi barrels one with pistons. Ideally he'd like to sell it as a job lot.

Hi Dan
If you decide to sell the kickstart, would you let me know, that is the only bit I needed really.

Well Done Dan. That's a p…
Well Done Dan. That's a positive approach. The complete engine certainly looks a likely proposition. It's worth fitting into a frame with only minimal checking over and test run.
Are you driving up from Devon? That will be a fair day's drive. Hope you've got plenty of boot space - my car is only a two seater and absolutely useless for carrying anything.

Hoping to get a mate to pick it up. Had the kickstart discussion .... none spare!

It would be interesting to see what mods / improvements he had made, noticed trumpet on carb, perhaps some other goodies in there to. Good luck.
