Found this c15a in the travels yesterday
No plates or visible numbers unfortunately
I suppose this new job and the much larger work area has got some benefits

Looks like the engine needs more than a couple of cans of "Start ya bastard!"

It suprised me too a bit though when he gave it a couple of squirts with the start ya bastard (as pictured) turned her over and fired within a couple of turns .Ran reasonably well . He sold it to a collector a couple of months back but not yet collected for the princely sum of $500 .full set of original wheels on the tray area and a few other bits over in the grass
The original canvas door frames had sheets of gal bent on to them and had the curtain frames there as well
