[QUOTE="Prince Duster, post: 86431, member: 154"] Hi - Simon mentions the A Comet, parked in 1940. Here's a shot of the bike. It is the most amazing machine; I'm sure the only really original pre-war bike out there. It has only moved from garage to garage in the same farm since the outbreak of the War. My sense is the maroon of pre-war bikes is darker than most people think, or restore their bikes with. I've taken shots of another unrestored one, which is in Kent. If you're on Facebook or Instagram, I will post a few more pics, as they don't upload easily here. Search 'Speed Is Expensive' on FB or @speed_is_expensive on Insta. David Lancaster [/QUOTE]
