G'day all, With my work taking up way to much time I mostly only lurk about 
the SEL with the odd post. A number of good friends from the list often 
e-mail and ask what I'm up to. Well not much resto work which is a little 
frustrating but I still keep and ear out for any engines that may pop 
up.  Well I got a lead which I followed through which saw me catch a flight 
to Queensland where I secured a deal on a couple of engines. It's the 
furtherest I've travelled chasing old iron but I have to say worth the 
effort as I now own a rare Aussie engine called a Graham. Quite unique in 
design for an Australian engine. It is 9hp, lamp start which is in very 
good condition. It's been sitting for around 9 to 10 years and after only 4 
to 5 hours giving it the TLC treatment Dad and I had it running. If you are 
in the need for an engine fix, check my webshots and look at the album 
"graham" the link is at the bottom of my sig.

cheers, Russell
