I thought for a moment it was this one (link above) but it's different... however it's yet another 12/50 in bits. 

That Dundee one looks quite solid, if anyone wanted to reassemble it.

Useful "Spares" source? if nothing else.

Biggest issue at this time would be physically being able to remove them due to lockdown?.

In "normal" times, especially the Andover one. I would have been tempted to take the trailer with the Motorhome and visit the Family in Hampshire and Surrey. (which is how the 13/60 came to me originally!.). It looks as if some of the rarer trim bits are there too?.

P.S. Would a 12/50 have had a twin Carb setup?. It might beg the question as to what the engine is actually?.

No. The twin carb was only on the 948s. The difference between an early 1200 and a 12/50 is the manifolds and cam, the carb is essentially the same.

Advert says in the text it is a Spitfire engine.
