    Awaiting a price up for parts, the first batch of parts shall be: Front forks Front wheel and spindle Rear wheel and sprocket Exhaust Silencer Handlebar lowering pole and clamp Tyres and inner tubes Tank pump Cables Need to undo the brazing on the front of the frame, luckily the bearing mount is still in place and has been worked around rather than removed. Found out that the forks on the rear for the wheel have been widened, will have to get a bit of weld put in and file it down. After that just need to prepare for painting and then paint

    Thanks for your help. The packet was addressed to the military hospital in Colchester. Don't know if that makes a diference http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290641455461?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_1467wt_824

    Guessing British Army by the cap of the man on the right, strange double wheel configuration on the rear also they are mostly all different tyres. Could it be in England as the clothes of the driver look like civilian ones. Could it be made out of aircraft parts?

    there was a forum styled like this and there was a "thank" button beneath every post which you could click and your name would appear below as a thank. I think it was a great idea. Lust remembered it would also count the number of thanks you have received below your number of posts.

    Seems as though there are several salvageable parts which is good because it would be a shame if the only way was scrap
