Featured Daytona 500

New project for a friend, full rebuild back to factory specs.

 

Can I be your friend? I have a '67 TR6; a '70 T120 and a '71 TR6 that would look REALLY nice in that exclusive darkman ""Creme de la Creme finish .......

 

Kind words thanks, i'm now starting to do bigger jobs for friends as after not working for 8 years as i was a carer for our parents at 63 years old i need to earn a bit as my pension isn't due for a few years and i'm too old to get another job :-( on the bright side its work i enjoy

 

Looking forward to this one already

 

Crack on @darkman
I love these threads

 

love the daytona, can't wait to see this one progress

 

Well in Darkman. That will keep you busy for a while.

 

Well it's a dog, trap n sump filter blocked, wrong head fitted but cases ok

 

Love this - good luck

 

Agreed and crack on, don't forget loads of photos......

 

Is it just the engine you are working on or the whole bike?

 

Just the engine rebuild.

 

I had a super sports back in the 70s the tank was in metallic turquoise blue, with a rack.
I loved that bike,so I’ll be keeping a keen eye on this thread.

 

Would it have been a 68 SS in Aquamarine over Silversheen ?

 

It was a 68 SS Aquamarine,but not sure what it was over..
I’ve got a vague recollection of cream but there again it could have been silver?
It had a TPR reg which was Dorset

 

Good luck with the rebuild Darkman, sounds like you're going to need it.

 

As far as i know some models had all Aquamarine tanks but most had silver on lower tank with white stripes Tom, don't quote me though lol

 

Do bikes have a gear lever on the left

 

I have no idea what you are talking about

 

Why is there a black gummy bear
