So got this donated to me a few months ago from a work colleague. It had been sitting in his garage for 10 years so when I showed interest that and he owed me a favour it was mine. Plans are to restore it and modify it Here's how I got it And here's what it's like now So far iv replaced all the bearing, restored the frame, axles and wheels and renewed the brakes and a new seat Next is the rear fender to be modified and painted. I would keep it original but someone has fibreglassed it before due to damage so not a big deal

spent many happy hours thrashing one of those around the local dunes in the late 80's. a little underpowered for the "larger framed" gentleman but a giggle none the less.
