Despite appearances to the contrary, this frame is almost like new!

With the way the A series leaks nice rust preventing substances,are you surprised :lol:

It's remarkably free of oil and grease, most of the gunk on it is a waxoyl type substance. The displacers appear good and are still pressurised.
