Re: Barn Finds??????
I/you wish! The syndrome seems to be that you flog the machine for five years with no softener/filter units no servicing & when it plays up you retire it to the shed.

The ad elicited a bunch of calls - ALL for Boema machines & GR45 grinders most of them from sheds (barns).

Re: Barn Finds??????
dont have to be vintage, the unic i found was a soleniod group volumetric machine. just think there could be some great stories behind some machines. that faema has never had an element, always gas fired so the inside is a mess, but it was absolutly complete down to every last nut and bolt and badge. thinking of doing an internal resto and leaving the dishevelled look on the outer. just love it.
hey boys have a look at the group you may notice the mid section is taller, factory double shot group i have been told/
