#1 Lightweight?. NO. This is a Lightweight.

Post by politeperson » Tue Aug 20, 2019 7:28 pm

Had a great trip in Gwyo today, 350 mile round trip to pick up a door shell and bits.

Met a lovely fellow who had just constructed an all alloy roadster.

English wheel, tree stump, shrinker, planishing hammer, soap bar, gas welding, chalk, plumb line.

Frames, floors, quarters, bonnet,doors, door frames, rails, everything. Alloy.

All handmade in his workshop. Amazing.

850kg he reckons.

Wow! Some talent.
But it is a pity that the arch flares are a little agricultural.......
