I purchased one of these 18 years ago from a classic car show at weston park. I paid £60 and got it loaded into the back of my 3 month old company golf GTI !!! Yep, it leaked!!! It ran very well but was in original unrestored condition. I got it home, my wife just looked confused and blank and uttered one word... "why?" we never mentioned it again! I ran it regularly for 8 months or so then decided to restore it. Head and water chamber, tank etc came off then I started working for myself and it sat there for a good 2 years. I then stored it at a friends house who had more workshop room than I and there it has been ever since. Last month he said he needed the space to extend so the old Lister D is coming home and I look forward to being re united with it again and completing the restoration. The only part here at the moment is the ID plate. As an old man now of 48 and semi retired I fully intend to put my all into the restoration. Should anyone (who has sod all else to do or as my wife says "is as sad as me") wishes to to read a blog and see pics/videos please let me know. Due to start July time. And to all who have a stationary engine, you are not weird... you are just misunderstood
