Hi Oddjob, thanks for the info and advice, it's really appreciated.
We wanted to keep all the original parts if we ever wanted to convert it back to original. We've been pretty lucky with it as all has been in pretty great condition, even the forks just needed a bit of wire wool and came up almost like new.
Coil leads seem good but when the engine is in, hopefully by end of Feb/March I'll turn my attention to the electrics.
We were going with Old English White tank, side covers and headlight cowl rim and dark brown leather single seat. We also have an MGB which in this colour scheme and we wanted them to match. It looks great in my head, let's just hope that translates to reality!
