A real spur of the moment purchase this one! Although it's turing out to be something of a bargain... eBay spares or repair, bought for £58! Having looked at it, the condition is too original to restore, yes there are some rust spots on the paint, but it seems to be cleaning up well & has the feel of a well cared for old bike... Restoration would spoil that effect... Possibly...
It's currtentl partly dismantled as it had to be made to fit in the car! As it's on a 'J' plate it'll be tax free too, which will be a bonus for the lucky buyer... should we decide to sell that is!
Having spent a few hours cleaning I can confirm this little bike has survived remarkably well & I'm looking at preservation as opposed to restoration...
There is a problem, however, there is no spark, the HT coil is fine, the points look OK... current thinking is pointing to the low tension coil behind the flywheel...
