That looks similar to the one i bought after i sold my motorola brick phone. Those brick phones were bulletproof!

Just finished replacing the flusher handle on the "head" after someone busted the old one. Which led into replacing the flapper valve and searching in the junk bin for new nuts to hold the tank on as the other ones were stripped.

Re-tensioned my timing chain, being as it was such a nice mild day today; now I can properly hear my exhaust system blowing, but it does run better again now ... :lol: ...

Mullered my thumbnail (again !! only nearly grew back grrr ) when the socket slipped 'cos I'd overtightened the adjuster cap. Still, it isn't the one I suck, the thumb !!
