[/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR] I'm not an expert in Vincent fonts or Vincent number pad to determine if it has been grinded or altered. [COLOR=#222222][FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]What do you think in general about the casting? it looks correct? ( a part of course the welding repair around the front primary sprocket) The machine registrar has confirmed the bike left the factory in Sept 1948. Mating number are K 14. How much do you think those could worth? (Knowing also that have been repaired and never tested since?)
