Dude, what's with all the conspiracy theories? Around the same time a bunch of the RS1s were cut up. Two of the three final RS1s were cut up and both were a lot more intact and functional than 206 was. This all happened 20+ years ago and a lot of the people involved are now deceased. A lot of other stuff was going on and lots of stuff was either lost (like the RS1s) or survived by dumb luck like the 206.
So if you got your wish and restored the 206 then what are you going to do? The NYS&W won't let it run and with friction bearings you can't move it anywhere except by truck. And then to where? At this point you would need to buy a second S2 and swap out all the needed parts to get 206 running.
Will someone please kindly post one of those "beating a dead horse" icons?
