Title: Blast From The Past
Post by: Zippy on July 25, 2005, 11:27 PM

I've just come accross this one on the Bay

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=22677&item=7172025731&rd=1

Haven't seen one of those in 20 odd years. I remember those wheels being indistructible. Heavy though.

That is very close to me, so if anybody wants it I could pick it up for you and take it to Bournemouth  ;)

It's tempting to bid on it, take it to Bournemouth and see who the first person is that breaks the wheels.

The bearings will break long before the wheels.
