awesome !!!!!!!! congrats !!!!!!!!!!!
Nice find!
I'd ride that one just the way it is once you get it running.
WOW!! If it could talk. What history!
That is amazing you have the original photo too ! Love it !!!
The guy, I got it from, bought it from the owner in 2005. There were several photos and reciepts. He bought the bike in 1943, then got married in 1946.
that was the last year it was licensed. It still has the 46 plate on it, and the registration for 47, never used. It was stored in the basement for years.
I would love this twice if I could! Amazing bike!! Thanks for sharing it!!!
very nice find
Leave it as is, show in the best unretored class AMCA. Thanks.
