New McDonald diesel fan Victoria in Oz

[Guzzi]

Hi,I've got the bug having restored a few ronnie N's then a Rosberry C and McDonald SPI I've now put myself in for a McDonald P type.And it came with free 20 litres of water in the crank case I could'nt resist.The engine is complete,completely seized,and a transporter with Ruston wheels which looks older than the engine.
Great to be part of the TOMM community.Would like to here from McDonald people who may know something about this engine.I'll post in the stationary engine forum.

Regards, Ian
