  2. Good to hear all is well in the old country.  I came across a small reference to Chalmers in  one of a very interesting series of articles on the life of the famous Detroit car collector Barney Pollard. featured in the AACA magazine 2012/13  Maybe you have already heard of him and read the articles. Here is a bit.  Cheers, Barry

  3. Hi Andy, Your spare Chalmers engine rebuild looks superb. What mods did the pistons require? I have a large stash of early pistons including many cast iron all NOS. 

    Probably scrap metal only as most go with aluminum replacements these days. I recall that one can run much closer clearances with iron but probably not a worthwhile endeavour.   Looks like a very nice lathe, Gratziano? Harrison?   just curious as I am in the market for  a bigger newer unit . Over here one of the favourites in the Hardinge, I think they have or had a UK factory as well as headquarters not far from here in New York. I am also getting a lot of shop work done on my 1926 Brough and 1980 XR 750 Harley projects. I abandoned the Lagonda  project after completing the chassis restoration as the bodywork etc  was too intimidating for me. The chap who bought it lives in London and has a saloon 2 serial numbers from the one I had !  It went to the best possible home.
