47614 Engine number - year 1954 Type YB Only 40% Mt Isa 48247 Engine number - year 1954 Type ETB Sydney NSW Brought this engine off ebay in 2007 from a pump collector in Tamworth. He'd brought elsewhere and had recovered the water pump from it. Sold it as is still on the wooden sled. Original condition and looks like a complete engine, but hadn't been going for some time - diesel remaining in tank had gone off and there was about a litre of water in the bottom of the sump. Currently under restoration, engine has been dismantled and is being cleaned. Looks generally OK inside except for all bearings on the crank which will need overhaul/replacement. 47839 Engine number - year 1954 Type ETB Seen on E Bay 48047 Engine number - year 1954 Type ETB In pieces but complete - Collected from Townsville 48885 Engine number - year 1954 Type ETC This engine was advertised in T.O.M.M. classifieds (issue 129 ). It is the first E. T.C I have seen painted green ( see photo in T.O.M.M.) instead of the usual reddish brown. I don't think it will take much to have this one up and running, maybe just a "liquid restoration" - cleanup, new paint and oil.
