[QUOTE="redbloke1956, post: 34848, member: 2299"] Hi to all, I was reading the recent post about building a Shadow from parts and had an epiphany, I don't ever see myself in a position of being able to buy a twin so I thought that maybe I could convert my (non matching numbers anyway) Comet into a twin. I understand that a complete twin engine is going to be difficult to acquire or if ebay is any guide, at least way too expensive. So I was hoping that there might be someone out there in UK or Oz or USA etc that might want to part with the beginnings of a major project, parts that you may have acquired over the past 60 odd years and are just gathering dust under a workbench - like Crank cases or fly wheels or con rods etc, I am not asking for donations guys, I would expect to pay a fair price for anything offered. I have wanted a Vincent twin for 40 odd years and I think this is the only way I might afford one. Regards Kevin [/QUOTE]
