HELLO PETE.... OK PICTURES . PICTURES... NO PROBLEM...LEO

Leo look forward to seeing your pics. Did you know that the Steyr Puch engines were used in an invalid car back in the 70's in the UK? The car was named the "Invacar" also came fitted with an automatic gearbox! Unfortunately there are very few around nowadays... the government had them all crushed.

HI CHRIS.. YES I HAVE A FRIEND WHO HAS A NICE ONE... STORY GOES THAT THE MORE SPIRITED WHEELCHAIREES USED TO TAKE THE GOVERNOR OFF THE ENGINE AND AT THAT POINT THEY WERE LETHAL WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION HENCE THE QUEEN PUTTING A CRUSHER TO THEM.NOT MANY PEOPLE KNOW THIS BUT THEY MOST OF THEM HAVE 3/1 CON RODS IN THEM AND THE MILITARY #5 CAMSHAFT SPIN ON OIL FILTERS AND THE BIG OIL PUMP..THE 500CC HEADS ARE CONSIDERED THE BEST TO PUT BIG VALVES IN BECAUSE THEY HAVE SMALLER CHAMBERS -- MORE COMPRESSION. A HOT INVOLET BLUE FLAME SPECIAL COULD HIT 70 MPH (OHHHH DOCTOR WHAT A RIDE THAT MUST HAVE BEEN) IM SURE A PINT OR TWO WAS NEEDED TO STEADY THE NERVES BEFORE THE RUN TO THE NEXT PUB...HAHA LEO
