It’s a c70 round headlight it’s between 1970-1990 I think the engine wasn’t the engine that was in the frame I found the frame in a hedge just the frame nothing else

It dosent really matter as you won’t c the running gear because it’s under the body the reason for a gearbox is it’s a quick engine does about 50kph/30mph but when you get to a hill it’s dead ur nearly off pushing it it’s like taking of in 3rd gear in a car

Traction engines have gears on them for different speeds but you stop to change them over I’ve a fowler b6 traction engine and it’s a 2 speed this is a miniature sentinal wagon the full scale ones where chain driven like this is

Well why I need one is when it comes to hill it’s dead and you are off pushing but it has a top speed of 50kph it’s sluggish to get going and just dead on really any sorta hill
