Yup, I believe Dave has the VIN stamped into the frame as well.
I saw him this afternoon & he showed me the brass plate. Very impressive -he's an annoyingly talented bloke! I'm hoping to persuade him to produce a MMMotors plaque to mount on the bulkhead of my truck. Being brass I can get it nickel plated.
Before you ask, he says no, he won't be making batches of them!

Fitted an electric fan a few days ago and was stuck for a way to operate it. Was going to go for either a manual switch on the handlebars or a thermostatic switch in the top hose. Both have problems, the top hose is too short and I'd just forget about turning on the fan manually. Rooting around in the garage, I came across the old, Kenlow adjustable fan switch and sender from my first Landy. The sensor bulb is too long to fit inside the top hose, so it's been wired to the rad core at the top, with the switch tucked up behind the headstock. Being adjustable it works a treat. And cost nowt |

Thanks.
I know it's a bit late but have come across a pic of the frame, prior to final paint and assembly.

How did you manage to stick it to that pebble dashed wall?

Don't be daft, it's not stuck to a piece of 2"x1". It's a length of, kiln dried, structural 4"x2". What sort if idiot do you take me for! 2"x1" would be far to small to take the sort of cornering stresses a good pebble dash wall can generate.
