Bucket List Disposal

At seventy-five, and having lost so many friends and relatives recently, I have decided to get rid of stuff I don't need and to draw up a bucket list of models I want to build. In fact there is only one model left that I'd like to build before my number's up, the 1/4 scale Fokker Triplane. I have a Laser 160 V Twin for it. So I am prepared to dispose of the following for the price of the shipping:

  1. An Irvine 36, cosmetically in poor condition but it runs very well. The only reason I am getting rid of it is that I have three other Irvines, an SC and an Enya 50 all of which could do the same job as the 36 or a better one. I could be tempted to part with an Irvine 39 in immaculate condition but at a price!
  2. An Enya 35 r/c new in box. It has been mounted in a model but I don't think it's ever been started. Two cylinder heads and silencer.
  3. An Enya 15 r/c in as new condition, no box or papers.
  4. An Enya 45 r/c well used but runs. The front of the starboard mounting lug is broken so that there are only three mounting holes in the lugs. Usable as is or repairable. Two silencers.
  5. A Cox 0.49 or perhaps it's one of plethora of copies made by different American companies under licence. There's nothing on the engine to confirm that it's a Cox. This one has an exhaust ring and a little pipe. The spinner is anodised blue and it has a red and aluminium fuel tank. It was siezed by castor oil but I warmed it up with a heat gun and it turns.

 

I am getting rid of stuff in case the Grim Reaper calls prematurely. I don't want my nearest and dearest to have to throw these engines into a skip! smile.gif Pictures of the Irvine and the Enya 45 below.

Having disposed of the engines to a Canadian gentlemen, I have an unstarted WOT 4 Mark 2 Classic kit for sale. I would like £70 for it plus the cost of postage from France. They are £142.50 in Steve Webb's shop. It is an early standard kit with a wire undercarriage and plastic cowling.
