He brought it off someone down in the Snowys. Apparently it had been used on the Snowy Hydro Scheme (my guess is probably one of the work camps). Engine was seized but was fairly good shape. Dismantled most of it, cleaned it up and put it back together. Piston came out fairly easily, but one ring shattered as I was freeing it from it's slot. Had magneto overhauled with new bearings, clean up and a magnet recharge. Engine started on second crank - probably would have gone first crank if I'd remembered to turn the on the fuel on the carby! Recovered second compression ring and magneto cover from engine 31071. 38964 Engine number - year 1951 Type AXC located at Thuringowa 39119 Engine number - year 1951 Type BDC Restored Seen at QHR rally 08 39131 Engine number - year 1951 Type BDC Lives in the 1934 Qantas Hanger in Parap, Darwin 39411 Engine number - year 1951 Type BEC Engine Complete Ex Darwin farm pump/ originally ran a generator- still on original base, gen missing, radiator missing owner Nigel- location Nowra 39447 Engine number - year 1951 Type YB Complete Painted green - owned Shane 39985 Engine number - year 1951 Type YB Unrestored - Ran Dairy in Jingellic * green - owner Barry - location The Gurdies 39994 Engine number - year 1951 Type YB located in Victoria 40243 Engine number - year 1951 Type BGC 33.3 hp, 4 cylinder, directly coupled to alternator no.6186 - M.S.T.E. located in Melbourne.
