12073
On hydraulic test the boiler held pressure well until the water gauge seals failed; it has a nutted and calked firebox with soft solder calking to the backhead.
The chassis is stiff to turn over although without tight spots - it needs stripping, cleaning and oiling, then reassembling.
Includes free UK shipping.
