Title: Cheddar Engine
Post by: Misty on October 04, 2010, 08:05:03 pm

I have just aquired a V twin engine which I think is either a Cheddar Pintail or Plover has anyone got any photos that may help me decide.

Thanks in anticipation

Misty have a look through all the threads in the steam sections, there are quite a few pictures on there already which may help.

It might also be helpful if you could post some pictures of your engine because if it isn't what you think it would be considerably easier for us to have a look at it.

Thats an excellent idea, I have already trawled through previous postings but couldn't find much so I am attaching some pictures as you suggest.
