I fitted that but forgot to take pics.

Thought I best set about the gearbox, stripped it and checked and it's a very nice box! So, etch primed and painted it all.

I like the wheels, i think they really suit it.
The only thing i'd do is get a bit of silver on the rocker cover, maybe machine the bit that is originally machined?
