Hi gents thanks for the comments, to be honest the body is a bit rough and the paintwork is even worse the photos make it look allot better than it is.

I will have a look at the suspension set up once its all sorted,the engine has just been set up to run it in so I will just plod along and do bits as I go.

All suspension and brakes replaced and powdercoated.


The boot on at the moment is one I bought as a spare and was painted with the union jack so put it on to see what it was like but I think I will go back to this

And this is what the engine bay looked like before I started


Roller tip rockers have now gone as one snapped so need to sort some decent standard rockers.

thanks for the comments gents looks like the boot will have to go and come out for special occasions to annoy the wolseley owners club.

The head came from the states, it is standard with no mods at all,so plan to have it modified this winter

Very nice example.

I wonder how good those cool, seeing the much smaller opening and farther from the rad too ???

Splendid !!
I have half a dozen or so spare Elf/Hornet bootlids if you need a spare to paint body colour.

Metric is for people who can't do fractions.
