1950 Norton Outfit PROJECT For Sale

This is a part built Norton plunger project race outfit.
Inspired by Titch Allen's "Sunday Racer".
Titch was a founder member of the Norton Owners Club who wrote a memorable piece in the old "Motor Cycle Sport" about building and racing an early Norton model 18.
This project was inspired by him and is offered for sale to be completed due to a change of plans.
Briefly a late 40s Plunger Norton frame in sound condition.
A model 18 engine with rebuilt bottom end, new piston and valves and guides.
Competition type BTH magneto
Race type dolls head gearbox with racing ratios so I was told, not checked.
Manx replica front wheel, alloy rim SLS brake, new linings... rare standard rear wheel, new tyres on both, New chains.
There is a racing primary chain guard, and a standard rear chainguard , rare Norton item. These are not fixed on the bike, its a special so some engineering is required.
There is a period big wheel racing sidecar in excellent condition plus some fitting already attached to the bike plus a few sundry fittings.
No paperwork but numbers are visible, it came from a reputable source, The photos are not brilliant as this is a reluctant sale and only offered to fund a new project, the engine has not run so it will need checking over, its a project!
Please ring for further details.
