Tyres......

......are now fitted:

Should be a roller this weekend, all being well. Burly blokes on standby!

More progress

Have been doing lots of bits & bobs, such as oil blacking the nuts & bolts, this inolves cleaning off all the rust & crud, heating & then dunking in old engine oil. Not sure if if adds much in the way of protection, but I think they look good & it does mean that I can keep the original fittings, which look a lot nicer than a whole load of shiney stainless. Plus they're free!!

The front end, rear swinging arm & wiring are virtually complete:

 I cleaned & painted the bevel box & rear brake plate to match the engine:

Rough!

after final coat.

New tyres are on order so hopefully will be a roller in a week or so!!
