looks like the carb is a Chinese home brew (the same home where the engine was made) than an Indian home brew

what i meant was, it doesn't have Walbro, unlike JBA engines (the engineer and the major stake holder of NGH engines is a breakaway from M/S JBA, so i am told). she is going on the test bed on saturday. will give a report

New year and time to update the thread
This time two of a kind, but in different capacities
First off, a RCV 91 CD, and then a 58 CD. The 58 CD was procured direct from RCV before Weston UK became distributors for RCV. The 91 was picked from our very respected member Susheel/Novaudio.
Both examples are NIB.
So to start with pictures of 91. The files are captioned appropriately hence think no explanations would be required. If you need to ask questions shoot

And the next and last set for 91 CD continued.
The muffler is common for both the engines with there being no difference in size

Up next is the RCV 58 CD
Outwardly both the engines are same except for size difference

Some had earlier asked for it. So dove down to bottom of the storage to fish out this box. Any way it was time to re-lube the beast. BTW I am now only using 2T oil to lube/re-lube all my engines either during storage or as after run oil. For storage I also plug all the orifices (on the engine :giggle:) with a tissue piece soaked in oil this not only prevents ingress of moisture but also ensures that when you pull these out any debris are pulled out and do not fall in the engine.

Any way here is an Austrian HP 120 inline twin glow NIB

And the supplied muffler. How on earth was some one supposed to fit these to the twin remains a secret known only to HP Engineers. Or could it be that though they decided to join to 60's to make a twin but forgot to make a muffler for the twin. The mufflers were probably included in the box as an after thought.

Gusty if you decide to pick up one be sure to pick up the original Austrian make not the MECOA made. The original command a better value too

Now this time it is some real vintage glow, and not one but two of them.
This time there's a pair of Gilbert, new and unused, but no box.
A bit of history about the engine from the current seller
Genuine AC Gilbert American Flyer .11 Thunderhead model airplane engine.  Manufactured in the early 60's for the AC Gilbert company, these engines are all NEW OLD STOCK, not reproductions, or used.  They were acquired from a hobby distribution warehouse that bought out the remaining inventory from the Gilbert company during their troubled last years, but they stopped selling them because the sat so long, the lubricant used in their manufacture got hard, and the labor to take apart and clean was more than the engines were worth, so they remained there until we rescued them.  All motors have been torn apart, cleaned, lubricated and reassembled by us, and should make a fine running engine for anyone wanting an inexpensive yet powerful glow engine, or collectors of Gilbert stuff have been buying them for years from us to display in their showrooms.  Comes with all the parts show in the picture,  except the original unsealed Gilbert hanging card with instructions on back.  I am now sold out on these cards, but all buyers will receive an JPEG scan that they can print for themselves, the Thunderhead .11 engine, original Gilbert fuel tank and hose, extra glowhead, universal glowhead wrench for both size motors, mufflers and screws (one short and one long as originally supplied by Gilbert to allow engine offset for control line operation), a spool of original control line thread, mounting screws, and one of the original Gilbert 7-3 pitch propellors.  PLEASE NOTE, the propellor is supplied for collector display use only, for safety reasons, buyers are required to purchase a new 7-3 or 7-4 propellor if they intend to use the engine.  As always, SAFETY FIRST!!!!! 
And here are the first few pictures of the .11

The engine comes with loads of literature, presumably the manufacturers used to offer the engines with their own brand of C/L models and thus included lot of instructions on C/L
