Looking forward to the build David, you've got a nice finish to the paint. To be fair I wondered if there was a tractor theme going on

That's the colours, paul not bl**dy John Deere green. Look at my avatar and you will see where the idea came from. Toddy, I am hoping (or at least Warren is) that I have it built up and the sidecar on for Newark in January.

No, I saw that at Brid and thought I hope it's more reliable than a John Deere, not that I am biased of course.

It's starting to look more like a scooter.

The guys at work have a cool wall with pictures of their fancy cars and this is the only scooter they will allow on, but then I do work with a bunch of agricultural enginneers( Farmers) .

Made some progress since my last post. The engine is in and waiting to be strobed. I am waiting for some parts to finished the wiring and fit the headlight. I eventually got the lights to operate through the ignition switch.
