Want to trade Sportsman for Space Hopper (trade completed)
I have a build in mind that would center around a Space Hopper. I have more Sportsman .15's than I can use.
So, I was hoping to do a straight up trade. I am not looking for a NIB just a complete engine. Doesn't even need to be a runner just complete. If you are interested please shoot me a PM.
I will post pictures of the Sportsman this evening.

Re: Want to trade Sportsman for Space Hopper (trade completed)
Here are the pics. Sorry for the delay, it was a little too barn fresh for pictures so I tore it down and scrubbed it clean, reset the piston oiled and reassembled. I can now guarantee it's a solid runner. Great compression. A couple small battle scars, but nothing too big.

Well, in the end I want a complete space hopper, but if you have one less the top end. I can work with that.

Runs Fine ! But without a real Space Hopper for comparison, Who Knows
It is still choked by a REED.

The hopper has a reed. I hear it is comparable to a TD in performance.
