C'mon Bob put us out of our misery, either early prototype MSA or a Fram-arse :oops:

Sod Ya! Yes early MSA it is a U12 that was owned by Susan Alcorn (known to some of you) This was the state of it when I got it to put right!

One loosely hanging lever and three pedals attached out of five.

The changer fingers before going back in, and the tighter reverse pulls and polished hardware when finished. Couldn't get the rods any straighter then that due to the restrictive crank positions.

You done a great job there Bob, what does it weigh, Susan must have arms like a wrestler, I don't think the cases of that era would have been lightweights either. :lol:
