    At Last, as header, finished Bialaddin 300X restoration, my first one and a bit of a learning curve. Please let me know what you think, all constructive criticisms appreciated. The colour is Speedwell Blue.

    Excellent really looks good.
    As do the engines in the background.
    Did you restore them too?

    Good job and I like the colour. It'll now last a few more decades before it needs and work done!

    Looks great, love the blue. If that’s your first attempt I’m really looking forward to seeing the second. Although, the 300X is my favourite Bialaddin, I reckon they take some beating.

    That’s a splendid fettling job you have done there. Your paint work is exceptional and I do like the blue colour.
    Are you going to light it?
    Pictures of her running would be good for us all to see.
    Enjoy
    Pete

    Looks fantastic! The only criticism I can come up with is it's not on its way to me.

    Very nice indeed. The colour really suits the lamp.

    Very smart but the spring below the pump knob should be on the inside of the pump tube.
