7th August 1942 according to the plate, just been imported from the US so it's been a long time getting to the ETO I've got the US title and that gives me an owner and address so i'll put something in the post to him to see if i can find out what's been done and any history. By the looks of it it's had a lot of work done, even had fuel stabiliser added and noted on the fuel cap, so i get the feeling someone knew what they were doing but you can never be certain so i'll give it a good going over and service. Other than a binding front brake and a leaky radiator cap, all looks well so far, fingers crossed.
