Where does the time go?

I haven't really made any further progress on the existing pile of parts, all is not lost however as I have managed to round up another pile of parts! There's a bit of overlap between the two piles but I believe there has been some reduction in the total number of parts still needed. Frame number is CA7 8189, 1955 (incorrect, see reply #36).

Hi John,
Nice find,
Are you sure its CA7?
The wheels are the late type 1958 onwards ??

Hmmmmm????

The new frame can't be a CA7 as it has a sidecar lug in the LH loop.
Centre stand is a later cast type which has different mountings to that on a CA7.
Possibly early GA7 or FA7 with a bit of creative work.
No brake lever mount hole through the frame either.

You guys are good!
My eyes told me CA7, a closer look using a magnifying glass says GA7. It's difficult to discern, even when looking right at the real thing.
Looks like this one's a 1960, not 1955.
