As well as rallying :twisted: and Clios :lol: .My next passion is old motor bikes :oops: :oops:
Here are a few pictures of an engine from a 1965 Triumph Tiger 90 350cc :shock: :roll: :roll:
I have a mate who rebuilt it for the right kinda money :wink:

We used to get the paint direct from either Dupont or HMG, but any decent supplier should be able to mix you some up.
I don't have the facilities at home to paint it for you unfortunately, i can do the coachlines though.

Very nice.

My dad had a 1950s T100 a while back which he rebuilt...still bled oil out of the crap crankcase design tho.
