I think it went behind the seat.
Turned up a wooden handle last night, just need to varnish it and install in the Series I. Did this go in the toolbox or were there Terry clips behind the seats for it ??
Next I need to get some steel and make a handle for the Shelley ......

interesting story and pics. very nice
Decided to check out the Series I and clean it today. It's been sitting for 6-9 months, I charge the battery occasionally.
It has twin Facet pumps and a Holden carby that was fitted years ago, I have a period correct carby that I must look at fitting one day..... Choke out, ignition on, pump starts clicking away. When the tone changes press the accelerator a couple of times and press the starter and she fires up immediately.
Petrol must be a bit stale and as mentioned it's been sitting for months but every time it starts up 'on the button'.
Washed & dried, checked fluids but when driving back to the shed I found the tickover was a bit high. After some investigation I found a spring was missing from the arm on the carby butterfly. Found & modified a spring, fitted and the revs now drop down when the accelerator is released.
Back in the shed ready for a run another day.

Looking good.
What is the ID of jack handle please.
Thanks.

I'll have a look when I'm next down the back shed, pouring with rain so far today.
I made one for another jack I found at a Trash & Treasure market, a short section of thickwall pipe and bored a taper so that the handle wedges in place. The one I have is a King Dick with, I assume, the original handle.
Did you ever get back to the chap with the Kero Fridge ? I needed dimensions to see if it would fit into the Series I.

Don't think that was me Colin.

Someone replied to my 'Kero fridge wanted' ages ago and sent a picture of one they knew of, I asked for dimensions. Checked back a few posts and it was Landy Smurf.
ID of jack handle is 24.4mm to 27.3mm. I just turned a handle to suit with a raised tapered section in the middle.
