Peter has purchased 19" wheels so as to reduce his engine revs when cruising, he is yet to get tyres but coming soon.
The engine has been water & bead blasted, inlet manifold tubes fabricated and Bing Carbs fitted.
The motor sounds glorious if  bit load for my camera but you will get the idea, impressed us no end.
