[SEL] Ozzie help needed

[Russell Gilbert]

G'day Graig,
sorry can't help. I saw your post on Harry's first, the Tomm then 
here! I had not heard of an angus engine. you got the better of me so 
I had to go check out the TOMM pic's of the engine. Sure is an 
interesting looking machine.Maybe someone here knows the name of the 
closest club to Stawell where aparently this engine maybe living?? 
Craig could then write to the club to find the owner that way??
Just a thought.
Russ
