Scottwilson 76 #1 Posted May 17, 2018 Well today I’ve started the strip down of the 512 I’ve found a few small problems that I didn’t know about but they are nothing to serious. Headlights and wiring needs more than just connecting, bottom of the bonnet needs tlc the gearbox bolts that support the rear of the bodywork are stripped in the casing with one being snapped. That’s about it at the moment. Next step is to get it all sand blasted to see what the metals like and get off the several coats of brushed on paint . 3 HeadExam, Stormin and Cub Cadet reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scottwilson 76 #4 Posted July 24, 2018 Bit more done as I’ve just got a load of parts back from the blasters/powder coaters. Also the rear tyres turned up Carlisle 23x10.50-12 . 6 Triumph66, Alan, Cub Cadet and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m hoping once I’ve got it back together and accumulated a few pennies I can get a deck and some other attachments so as I can work it a bit .
