Ive been looking out for one of these machines foe a while. I recently picked this one up via Ebay for a song. Ive seen a quite a few around ranging from downright rough through to overpriced mediocrity. This one looks to be be in good nick overall. It needs some low level work but nothing too much. This machine had been with the original owner since around 1968. I have had a friend in Manchester pick this up for me, he will be passing the machine onto me later this week, so the images are taken by him with a few form the original auction. I intend to strip the machine down, clean, strive and replace tyres, tubes, blocks and possibly cables. Will need to clean up the frame and replace a few of the frame decals. Overall thought the machine is nice and original, with an honest patina. Ive red up on some of the history behind this model, but if anyone can add their knowledge to this thread I'd appreciate it.
