So I decided about a week ago that it was going to be to expensive and hard to find parts to do a model 2 rotomo restoration for myself and put the idea to bed.
In the last few days a model 2 or 2A engine went up on ebay, I stopped bidding at $435, it has 4 or 5 days left and I screen shot the price and sent it to a few people saying wow basically. I had 1 of these people say I wish I could sell my model 2 stuff for that much. Then he said "I would sell my model 2 running and mostly there". I straight away said I'll pay $250. So all of a sudden I now have a model 2 engine being rebuilt for me and I already have the fuel tank and the metal fuel cap, the model 2 carby and throttle, I have 3 exhausts and hopefully 1 is the right one, I have the right choke and air hose and I have the axels too. The only 2 parts I need now are the base and the tin wheels. I have everything else.
