[Grant]

Slowly digging out all the parts I had salted away, and making lists of what is still to find/source/restore.

Aiming for better than.
Only upgrade is a Redax ignition/alternator kit, otherwise totally, painfully (expensively) standard.

Thanks guys.

Little bit more done, but it has now been put into storage for a while as I reconfigure the workshop for the next few days at least.

I'm delighted that I'm the new owner of this stunning bike.
Grant's knowledge, experience and attention to detail has ensured that it has been built as a rider's bike, as that's exactly what I intend to do with it
I'll be collecting it very soon, so watch this space
