Hi Jaime,

Engine wise, I was thinking of using a Gran Turismo 200 barrel I have in my shed along with either a 62 or 60mm crank and a 24mm or 25mm carb breathing through the frame breather filter

If that doesnt work any good, I'll get my spare TS1 barrel replated!

Paint wise, I was thinking of painting it original Grey/dark grey... but may Rat rod it up a bit!

Front brake wise, I have an original disc with a hydraulic conversion which I will probably use... although I would like to get a Frank Sanderson double disc and may do this instead!

I'll just make it up as I go depending on how much cash I have at the time of each step!

Cheers,

db
