Thanks for the replies, all help is useful so the offer is much appreciated. I am aiming to pick the project back up in September :)

Good luck with build and enjoy the long nights in the shed :).
One piece of advice though, get the frame checked for alignment before you paint it especially as it's been fitted with another front end.
The last two restorations I've completed both had frames that appeared fine but were both out of alignment once placed in a jig. It cost me £80 to have each one checked and straightened. Money well spent, the last thing you want is to finish a build only to find it doesn't handle.
You will need to fit the engine (bare crankcases will do,it doesn't have to be together), the swingarm, rear shocks, back wheel and the top and bottom yokes to be really thorough.
I used Hybrid motorcycles in Sarratt, Middlesex.
