Not sure about that, no one else wanted it! Anyway, its ended up slightly different than planned....almost finished... Still need some replacement bushes for the cranks and headlight/speedo sorting out, but have a few ideas now.

Well, got it running today. Few bits left to finish - air filter, speedo bracket, steering stops and a numberplate bracket.

Registered and on the road now, turns out its 1972 to save £15 on tax. Its a right laugh, having taken it out a little bit. Had to put a bigger jet in the carb, and the rear brake cable I bought new was rubbish so I've replaced that. It'll do 30+ down a hill!
