    For the old 'uns amongst us

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

    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.
