1982 Mamod Live Steam Wagon Truck SW1 - Gift Boys Men - Air Tested 0409

Description: LIVING ESTATE SALE (Details at the end of description) For your consideration is a Mamod Live Steam Wagon/Truck SW1 made in England in 1982. This truck is only in average condition.The truck has been air tested (video) and should not give much trouble to operate on steam.It is 100% complete and 100% original, including the original box that is in poor condition (but the directions on it are still very readable). This item was still in production with very few changes in 50 years until very recently. Here is the link : https://www.mamod.co.uk/shop-categories/1318-blue-steam-wagonAt the price of £422 and with the current rate of change, the price was around $530.Unfortunately, Mamod has closed doors as of August 2024, so a new one from the factory is no longer an option. The main thing to report is a cosmetic flaw :There was some damage around the boiler connection for the pressure relief valve. The female connection was re-soldered and this was done correctly.The denting that followed the mishap remains quite obvious and the poor attempt at paint touching didn't help much.The repair is sturdy if not aesthetic. Many photos... So, genuinely average condition but if you can live with the few scars and a bit of cleanup, this is still quite a fun steam truck. You will need some solid fuel pellets (anywhere camping supplies are sold) and distilled water is strongly recommended. Please note that, if an item has been air tested, it might need a bit of work to operate on steam. Often the older gaskets have dried up and leak a bit. Making new gaskets is easy but my old hands aren't steady enough any longer. I wish I could... Please select the shipping system that suits you best. Condition : This Mamod Live Steam Truck / Wagon is in average condition. It has been air tested (video) and should not give much trouble to operate on steam. It is 100% complete and 100% original, including the box that is in poor condition. There was obviously a problem with the connection between the boiler and the pressure relief valve. The connection has been re-soldered and it was done well. However, the boiler suffered from some dents and the attempt for a paint touch-up was not very professional. So, it is not a beauty queen with a few (not many) spots of surface rust, but it is mechanically sound if cosmetically challenged. The box is indeed in poor condition but the directions are still quite readable. I would rate it a C5 (average). This might be a bit severe though. VERY IMPORTANT : I am offering four shipping options. You can check the cost by clicking next to shipping on "See Details" or make your choice at take-out. The default is usually UPS Ground as Expedited Shipping can be expensive and is not necessarily more reliable. Please keep in mind that I do not control the cost of shipping that is calculated by eBay. Free pick-up is always available (Rock Hill, SC). LESS IMPORTANT : Items are packed and ready for shipping when I make the listing. Combined shipping cannot be done if one item is larger than 8 x 8 x 8 packed. If it is possible, smaller items can be combined upon request prior to the payment. Guarantee : Item is guaranteed to be as described. I am a very honest seller hoping to deal with honest buyers. If I know something is wrong, I will disclose it but I certainly can make an honest mistake and will do my very best to correct it. Warning : Many of these older collectibles are not in compliance with today's safety standards. It is the responsibility of the buyer to determine whether or not they are still suitable for their intended purpose. Adult supervision is indispensable with any steam engine. Packaging :Items are packed carefully and should remain undamaged through a standard level of care during handling. LIVING ESTATE SALE DETAILS :I had my first steam engine when I was 9 years old. That was 65 years ago. I have been collecting them for 25 years and I am now 74. None of my descendants is interested in the collection, so I decided that it was time to liquidate. As of October 2024, I still have over 1,300 engines of all kinds to list. I believe in full disclosure. It takes me about an hour to list one item, between the assessment, the testing, the video, the photos, the description and the very careful packaging. I try to have very reasonable prices. At comparable quality, my prices are probably the lowest on the market.SU/AI
