One for you to think about....

Had a look on the BSA Regal site for info on the project...

BSA TEMPEST 2003
Twin 1,000cc 85 BHP
Top Speed: 120 MPH
An initial concept prototype, built in Southampton, using the British-designed and built 1000cc Rhind-Tutt Wasp engine. BSA tested the market with this traditionally styled, recognisably British motorcycle placing a strong emphasis on handling and usability. Although was well received by most reviewers, its true test came when the lack of firm orders resulted in the Tempest not going into production.

Spotted this while out and about today, a Massey Ferguson 35 with a haybob on the back. It could be nearly 50 yrs old but its still in use. The hills in the back ground are the Ochils, just to the east of Stirling.

Another pic from Larry, it looks like a 1947 Chevy pickup to me, maybe Larry can confirm that. Its a project one of his co-workers has just finished, looks great.

Larry's just got back to me to let me know the owner Frank says its a 51 model

Just had a few words from Frank about his pickup







"This is my '51 Chevy.It was sitting in a man's garden just rusting away. It has pretty much been completely restored. It has a 302 Chevy engine (Yes a 302) Chevy only made that engine in 1969 for the Z-28 Camaro. So it "scoots" quite nicely. Free-wheelin' Franklin SMSGT(ret) USAF"
