Other than the dodgy trailer light for a tail light it looks pretty original. It really only needs detailing and a spruce up. The patina, including the tail light, just gives well deserved character.

I'm not a Monty expert (Ross would be a better reference he's had Monties longer and has a H6) but fire away here or by PM.

Congrats Rodge, you getting quite a diverse and desirable collection.

Headlight, taillight and front guard seem to be the only non gen parts on it...........of couse ,except for all the bloody rubber bands holding every friggin' thing together........the one on the centr stand makes me very nervous :( :( :(
