Yes, finally it's time to bring back Elizabeth to life again.
I brought all the pieces from the other house, now I'm gonna separate and tomorrow is time to start put together.

To say nothing of how to fit that anvil. Whereabouts on the bike does it go? _________________ Dane- roverdriver but not a Viking. |

Have you ridden a BSA?, compared to the equivalent Triumph and Norton, they come fitted with the anvil as standard, helps the power to weight ratio!

LOL!
How about a anvil gas tank?
I have so many things here, even I don't know all I have.
Sometimes I find something and think: Hey, how cool is that, I almost bought a new one!
But unfortunately It's time to detachment, I'm looking everything with a price tag on it. And must confess, It's really hard when I seat at my car, and go for a ride thinking that i must sell.
But hey, we're here to talk about Elizabeth, here's some silly update:
I have all the parts together.

Hello lads, after a while it's time to show some results.
I took the last two days to re-assembly the BSA engine, a lot of hard work especially because I disassemble the engine about 4 years ago and my memory isn't the best. So luckly I have separate some groups of pieces in recipients to help. And that's make the difference.
Well, the engine is on the frame, tomorrow unfortunately I'm gonna spend the whole day at the police station to make the metallographic test (is that right?) at the Triumph VIN number and I'm gonna have to work on saturday and help a friend to fix the Land Rover on Sunday, but next week I hope bring some news!
*You can see a very rare, imported and priceless tool used to hold the piston rings.
Kind Regards.
