Anyone see the eposide, last night, of Mike Brewer dream cars (or something like that) in which they trade their way upwards to give someone their dream car.
One of the vehicles bought and sold was a CB 750 partly built by a restoration expert "Andy" as he didn't want to complete for reason of, too much work.
Usual description, motor gone through, new tank and painted bits to go with it. The show "fall guy" for drama was most of a 4 into one system, without silencer.
Que explanation by Mike as, rare as hen's teeth, impossible to buy, no replacement made of the 4 pipe system needed to complete. He'll get on the blower to "World wide" contact network to see if he could locate such unicorn items
Cut to later round up, he'd located a chap called David Silver no less !! and found none available to supply for another 5 months
but good news, customer had returned a set he didn't need
that could be purchased for a reduced £900 yay, pipes arrived, Elvis fitted them, set final drama of the " will it start, won't it start" shenanigans just for the punters you'll understand.
On the button, first time........but looks like a lot of throttle Elvis is using to keep it going there
Sold via bidding to happy new customer.
Cut to real target, Caterham super 7 for happy ending. Aaaaaah.
Oh, and the alignment of #4 downpipe looked, ahem, not quite matching other pipes, that's just from a quick look in telly land editing. Probably why they were returned to DS if that's definitely there.
Reg no PMF 115R and thought they said a 1972 model, painted fork ears too, likely a bitsa. Thought it had K2 top yoke and clocks, possibly.
