Scrap

One Man's Junk is Another Man's Treasure.

Last weekend I managed to come by a box of parts that I hope can be used for the engine rebuild.


The camshaft and lifters are not in mint condition bout should be usable. At least in a much better condition than the ones I've got.

Framed

The other day I found a frame that, with some modifications, maybe could be used for the 350cc.

A rusty old Douglas EW 350cc frame and a HVA wheel with clincher rim.


Since it was made for a boxer engine there is no belly, the lover frame tube will have to be replaced with a new one. The clearence is 33cm but the JAP engine need at least 44cm to fit

Made a rust solvent from Acetone and ATF oil. Hopefully the steering stem is still usable. 


The handle bar is no longer seized but the steering stem is...

Carb & Wheel

The other day I bought another restauration project. An Amal 276 / 011F carb, almost complete. According to the buyer from a BSA. According to interner and other experts also used by Norton 16h


Today I bought yet another wheel


Now I really need a frame.

Wheels

Bought me a couple of wheels today.


I believ the rusty one to the right to be an old motorcycle wheel and the new one to the left might be a small wagon or cart wheel or similar.

Maybe I'll change the hub on the new eheel to brake hub for a rear wheel.
