Carl, as always, that is stunning.

What a great find.

Can't wait to see it built up. Are you going to stick to a specific build?

Thanks G.

It took some tracking down i can tell you, and then when i did manage to find it....actually getting it was another matter, but perseverance prevailed in the end... :oops:

As for the build, every pic i have seen shows a slightly different build spec of it, but i think its safe to say its going to be period correct, and as he rode it for the photo shoot for MBUK.

Carl, I don't know how you do it, amazing.

Right, got my comfy armchair, and coffee is on the go; settling down for a(nother) fine build.

Splendid work!

Is this a JMC frame?

Kevin Winter had something to do with Hardisty I think.

Looks like you've done a lot of work on it already - tell us the story!

Brilliant. I didn't doubt it for a second. If anybody could do it and jmc justice, it's you.

P.S I told you so... :wink:
