I mentioned you would have loved to see this one , It was lucky I caught them on the day , they are not going to display it without the engine off but mention at request they would take off for a photo shoot.

Dan , they had Goblin in the museum cut open, I should query where it was placed, It had a handle connected to the starter gearing , you could whined it over and show and explain how the engine works , maybe they are planning to place a geared electric motor , I'll have to ask .. this was going ten years back.
