    Back in the game again, this time a little 27T, similar set up to my old roadster, been part's collecting, few more bit's to go but getting there.



    a crusty but solid English A frame, pilot front end, split wishbone, T spring and 39 Banjo rear, going to be doing this in a Council lock up with no chance of electricity in deep dark North London. So it'll be a bit of fun, spent the afternoon in the garden of my flat, cleaning the frame with the Aid of a work mate and the mrs's garden table..

    The HOPE for this kind of build is what keeps me on the HAMB and its far too rare lately!

    This should be interesting. I like the plans you have for it.


    You win the small garage space award this time around. That makes my one car 1930's garage look pretty spacious.

    Got it rolling today and the motor and gearbox bought, but unfortunately my garage is leaking after all the rain we've had, so I've spent more time mopping up and trying to seal the place! ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1388855547.119735.jpg ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1388855604.958011.jpg

  21. Looks like a cool build.... If by fender irons you mean the supports that go under the front fenders, I have a pair of '28/'29 and maybe even a headlight bar I'd be willing to let go of. pm me

    Your on the right track. Stay focused, fund your project by selling me the BSA.

    Good luck,

    Bit of progress, been quiet lately, as only get the weekends to touch it really.

    finally got the body here, just waiting on rebuilding the axle then i'll get a shot of it rolling out side to see how she really looks!
