Yes - like that one. Guess you will have to contemplate what sort of finished effect you want to end up with and whether the guard will stay together - I noticed pin holing on the guard next to the joint with the valence - but as long as the rust moths keep holding hands it should stay together.

This Model A appeared as an alternative after something I was watching was withdrawn from ebay. Strange that exactly the same picture is being used by 3 sellers with different IDs and one of the IDs is using a picture of another bike (a Sunbeam) from a Sheffield motorcycle dealer as I recognise his ...

On the pictures of the millers - the "and another one" is a Thiel I believe - well worth getting if you want a versatile tool room type miller. Look up the specs on lathes.co.uk

Saw this as I was looking at e bay - only on for 3 days so thought it best to alert persons here asap. Not clear if the carb is with it or not - its in some of the pictures but not others.
