New Villiers Engine for the Geest Truck

A fantastic drive out this morning up and over Pendle Hill and through the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty towards Burnley to pick up a Villiers stationary engine won in an EBay auction for a mere £45.   Why? I hear you cry.  It will replace the Villiers engine on the Geest three wheeler truck which is a bit temperamental in the sense that it won't start!

It would have cost more than £45 to have the other one looked at.   The new engine is in running and restored condition and at 250cc is a good deal more powerful than the 98cc existing engine.  Something to do in the summer.
