Drove up to Newark, Nottinghamshire this afternoon to collect the
engine and the assortment of bits that came with it, including the
marine hand starting gear and a number of parts from a second engine
that was scrapped.

Apparently both engines were found in a ditch, the vendor had photo's
of them both as found, which I have asked him to copy for me.

The engines were from a ship's tender, the ship being the Monte Rosa,
a repair ship for the Tirpitz at one time.

If you look up her later name 'Empire Windrush' she brought the first
load of immigrants from Jamaica to the UK in 1948.

We also brought back a lot of photocopied sales information for CLM
(Compagnie Lilloise de Moteurs) who produced these engines under
licence.

I'll get the camera clicking tomorrow.
