    That's a great buy and a great save. Nice work. I face the same thing as Bab- they just aren't available, and many, never were.

    I should post some more pictures as the bike is going strong as ever. Regarding old bikes here in Oz, maybe it’s the geography ie. bikes that are left forgotten on properties and suddenly turn up, maybe it’s the climate! Cheers, Bob.

    Nice work Bob. Those rims look to be alloy not chromed steel.

    Yes they are mate :) . They get a a bit of Autosol every time I clean the bike. The renewed interest in the bike has caught me a bit off guard. I have been doing little detail bits to it over time, so more pictures and I will try and post a video. A friend of mine has nearly convinced me to go the Karuah River Rally in February, I just need to get myself together and get some stuff out of the cupboards. I’m working on that.
