Hi All
Moving on from my first post several months ago, regarding the restoration of my MCS, what are the current views on the restoration of the engine cradle/plates
I believe originally they would have been cadmium plated? long since banned.
So what is the current 'approved' method for restoration, zinc plating, some other plating treatment or just paint them a suitable silver?
If plating of some sort, are there any recommended plating companies for this sort of thing, I'm currently East Midlands based, but happy to travel reasonable distance?
I would also be very interested (Paging John Wakefield) in knowing if there is any factory dispatch history that exists for Frame number 61/3832 and how many 1961 MCS's in total were actually produced.
Many thanks
Jamie
