Sorry mate.  Up top, match start engines are pretty damn rare beasts.  I only
know a couple of guys that own (or owned) one.  Are they more common down under
in Oz?  I only know of an early Fairbanks model that was match start.

In the George Best mode of thread change, how many different match start engines
can folks identify?

See ya,  Arnie

PS - Using a match to light the fire under a boiler or hot air engine, or the
starting lamp, or the hot tube DOES NOT count.
