did not know you were looking for a Petite Frame.  I sold one yesterday!  (Rickman one not a Bultaco one)  Did not have a swinging arm ,but I have got another new Petite one if required.

A mate has a Petite Metisse frame that isnt being used, so that could go as well if it is needed for a Firko Replica!

(body work not a problem, just choose the colour!!!!!)

Finally the phoenix is starting to rise.  It took a few years and a lot of heartache, help from Helmut Glassen to get contacts in Europe, but we're almost there.  motor has been built by Paul Gibbs VMX173 and thank you. Now I need a front sprocket and nut and washer
