i've got this lump sitting in my garage...
'67 T120, fresh motor, bolt-on hardtail (not my thing), repro harley springer (again, not my thing), wassel style tank, etc

me, i think it'd make a bitchin' dirtbike/scrambler, but it's a buddy's & not mine. it is for sale, though...

Thought this was worthy of inclusion. I'm a sucker for the square four - one of these days I'll have the cake to be able to afford one.

Hunter trials actually. Looks like Sammy Miller-type (oil-in-frame) Ariel HT trials frame.

1934? That'll be a new bike to you Cornish Folk

Yep, Rob...original 3-piece Dunstal kit...seat, tank and fairing purchased by th PO in 1973. The tank I've had to Caswell twice to keep the f*cking ethanol from eating it up.
