matchlesswdg3 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Alas, due to me wearing out faster than my bikes, I am transitioning to four wheel MVs! Literally just finished the complete restoration of this fine Matchless. The guts of the work is featured in an AJS& Matchless Owners Club magazine article and was masterminded by the ex-President. I have corrected various mistakes made with fittings and tinware, and started commissioning, but it runs (it's fast) and stops and is road legal. Likely will need a bit of setting up, but otherwise ready to show and use. I want £6,500.00 which is a fair bit less than it cost to restore, as is usual! This is a genuinely rare example of the girder fork precursor to the WDG3L, as used by the BEF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davey089 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 That is nice . Just a damn shame it wasn't for sale in about 3 months time when my other shed is built and finished , I'd have given it a good home just stuck for space at the moment :rolleyes: .

Tom M Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Greasy side down . . . Hi, What part of the country are you based in? Can the bike be viewed? Do you have any more pictures; off side, rear and of the instruments? Do you know what work has been done to the engine and gearbox, and how much of the tin ware is original?
