Project wanted
I am looking for a basket case or unfinished project rigid long stroke A7, star twin,
If i can get enough bits together i would consider building one from parts.
Please let me know if you can help with anything.
What parts you have location and how much.
If not i will go for the short stroke plunger model.
ALL HELP, ADVISE AND INFORMATION GREATFULLY RECEIVED
THANKS DAVE (VAGABOND)

Having one myself I'd say to keep looking for the earlier long stroke, lovely bikes! Engine parts regularly come up on ebay for silly low prices often not even attracting a single bidder. I cannot understand why.

I HAVE NOW FOUND A 1950 PLUNGER FRAME & FORKS (anyone got any 1950 A10 crank cases or a motor)
I am still looking for a Rigid frame for the 48 longstroke project

THIS IS GOING TO BE SLOW GOING
