The result being; that when Stationary Engine Magazine looked for a horizontal engine for a restoration project, following our previous restorations (Lister D Type, Ruston-Hornsby and Wolseley WD2) the Amanco came straight to the top of the list. David Appleton is a very accomplished and talented restorer and Stationary Engine Magazine were very lucky to be able to persuade him to take on the task (which made him a very brave, accomplished and talented restorer!).
