Can't say I know Robin, but I would like to have a go in his E type!!!
Where did you find the frame rubbers to support the petrol tank, I could use these on my Honda.

I do remember seeing a yellow GT40 a couple of times, but I never met the man,
Thanks for the contact on the tank rubbers

Thanks Pete,
Frame was a bit of a pain due to its size but it got there in the end.

Fork stantions have been re chromed and should be back in a day or two, I was unable to get the seals for the betor  forks so in the end I had them done by someone else.
Usually I build forks myself.

Once there back the whole front can go back on.
The engine will be the slow bit as I'm in the hands of others.
