With the greatest of respect Tony on this occasion yes it is largely your point of view I disagree with. I completely understand your position from a commercial point of view, however 99% of us are not running a business so restoration is not a commercial enterprise. I believe there is a place for dealers of second hand parts, people such as yourself provide a valuable service on many levels, particularly in reproducing new components. Now I am sure you are not in business to do this, but if you were to purchase either of the two Nippy's disused here in order to break them for parts simply to make money I would be extremely hostile toward you as I am sure would almost everyone else. Leave them for the enthusiast to restore who will not worry so much about commercial considerations such as resale value.
