Work to date includes a largely complete chassis with all valve gear and motionwork erected. Unsteamed from new, the silver soldered copper boiler is commercially-built, CE-marked, supplied by Blackgates Engineering.
Work remaining is mainly pipework, fittings and paintwork - the engine could be completed at modest additional cost, plus some time in the workshop.
If you need some inspiration, there are pictures of the finest one of these we've ever seen in the archive here.
