    A shower and a shave might help too.

    A diet and some exercise wouldn't go astray either

    Although that is tidier than he is most of the times I've seen him

    Compressors don't count !!!
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    Very cool... Looks fairly complete as well...

    Given it looks like the mag is missing and the drive is exposed do you think it stopped one day and once they found out the cost of repair it was just parked up as last used???

    Whats the plan? Fully restore or wipe with an oily rag, tyres etc and get it going as found...

    I've got th mag and timing chest cover it's not missing much, some of the pedalling gear and the top hat case that holds a spare tube and drive belt too.
    I've had it about twenty years and just got it down off the shelf to put on display, it'll get a resto one day but busy on a chopper at the moment then have a lovely ACE four that's i'm itching to do.
    This'll be a bitch to do cause of all the mongrel threads the british used.
