G'day Ady,  *welcome*.
 My '51 A7 plunger is my favourite bike. I'm sure you will love yours.
There was no internet in 1982 when I got mine. I'm sure with the help of the forum your build will be a lot less painful. Waiting up till 2am to ring England for parts was tiring and expensive.
Cheers

First thing I did, lol.
Gave me a chance to look at what I had and didn't have.
next was service sheets parts list and Haynes manual, now the fun begins.
