Thanks Graham, still a lot to learn. Were the rear shocks fitted with open chromed springs or shrouded ones?Thanks Bill W.PS. What's the going rate for a full engine overhaul?

But, the tank is correct and so are the side panels for a UK F2, the shocks are pattern ,TEC, as you cannot buy originals any more. The brackets are black and should be zinc plated. But hey ho, it's a work in progress restoration and has been off the road since about 1984 😀😀 Still looking for a set of NOS pipes if anyone has a set hidden away, i don't think Father Christmas is going to be of much help.
