Hey, Iani, I just saw the photo and knew it has to be you! I don't know how you always manage to get the most incredible stoves! Keep going, Yonadav
Hi Ian, Great restoration. I picked one up in France a couple of years ago that was totally complete. Unfortunately when I came to restore it I found the control spindle had previously been snapped. I have the two halves - just unfortunately the business end is siezed solid in the valve. As the spindle is very thin (as you'll know) I've not yet worked out a way to remove it. Back to France for our annual roadtrip shortly so hopefully might find another one to rob for spares. Cheers, Graham.
Hi Yonadav Guess I am just lucky. Graham Here are a few more, you may look out for, whilst you are in France. They all have minor differences - Good Hunting.
Crikey Ian, that's an impressive collection. Probably a bit naive of me to think there was only one version! Thanks for the heads-up. Cheers, Graham.
Other than the size difference the profile and shape of your Pigeon looks like a rural postal route box in the United States. Only missing the flag on the side.
