I didn't think it was you Brian, your ability to spell correctly was a big hint
I had been following an Atco Allenscythealike which he had on, I'd have had a punt at a more favourable starting price and while an interesting looking thing I'm not exactly desparate to have a foreigner amongst the Allens already in residence!
So neither of us know the seller but its a steering box if anyone is desperate !
Caveat emptor - or make sure the cave has no hungry bears in it it before having a kip there (I think)
