Had the exhaust made by Spondon when I did the original build. No problem getting an mot in those days, not so sure now though!
Just building up to run the engine in, then will be stripping some of the bits back off for finishing off.
Hasn't been on the road for around 18 years, so will need a gentle shakedown!

any more progress with this build chris ?

Yes, the old girl is running now, but not quite finished. The wiring needs sorting as it is not pretty at present. Also nned to put the chain on, but have broken my thumb, so all mechanic activities stopped for another 5 weeks - doh!
I have only built her up to run the new pistons and bores in, so some bits have not been polished or finished, but the paln is to get her on the road around Easter time.
