Look what i found!
« on: April 22, 2010, 09:02:04 PM »
Before anyone asks, NO, i have NO idea why the hell i just bought a wrong-wheel-drive two stroke 3 wheeler!

It appears to be a Bond Ranger Estate, MKG, 1964, original transferable reg, modern logbook, last tax disc 1996. 100% complete, but roof detached. Full of spares to make another 1/2 or so of a bond.

ETA at my garage tomorrow hopefully.

I got it for negligible money.



Sometimes i think the day i found that Scootacar may have started a bad obsession.

To put it another way, it was last on the road fourteen years ago.  Time flies....

A lot of steel in the G so can be a lot of work to sort. Panels used to be available as I had a whole set spare - sold now. If you like these then I am sure there are more rather sad Gs out there wanting love. You called become a G man. The only thing less loved seems to be the poor old Plas 875. From what I have gleaned of Adi, right up your street sir, no tuning required for dangly front wheel fun.
