Another day by the side of the road

Nice day Saturday Danny and I thought it would be good to pop over to Oxford to see Leighton only made it to the M40 junction float snapped in the carb, carb filled with fuel bore washed the engine bit hairy lucky it didn't catch alight, game over had to call Alex to come out in the love pickup ended up sitting the garden with a few beers.


 Had right result with these item 71 iron head frame with a tank seat and a set of bars and the 3 over springers brand new still got some of the plastic covering on never fitted think Danny has a eye on the frame and the springers are what i really wanted for the shovel thats my winter build taken care off.
