Ups, didn't realize that the first info also came from the HP.
But I'll take the chance to say hello to all after being only a reader here up to now.

Hi Mike and welcome to the nuthouse

If you've lost the plot or were never quite sure what it was, you'll fit in very nicely here.. seemless one might say

I'm a bloody Kraut who sometimes dresses up with a Highland kilt (connections to the Black Watch RHR), so can it come worse?? :dance:

What you get up to in the privacy of your own home is for you to live with Mike We won't hold it against you unless photographic evidence is produced ;-)

Tony..Mike..thanks very much for those links. Its been a long time since I saw anything of this project, and I'm amazed just how well its turned out. Of course the fact that he skinned it with aluminium explains why " From the outside, you would never have guessed it was plywood on wooden frames". Gawd I can be dim at times. :roll:

Can anyone identify the motorcycles?

1927 Brough Superior and 500 Manx Norton. Here's another pic of the Manx and a road-going Brough with a sidecar.

My mate and I have been trying to locate a pic of that sticker for years as we wanted to recreate it. And thanks to Brooklands - now I can!

Ian, you should've asked as I've already got a pretty good image that you can use if you want. I know of two people already who've recreated these stickers, the one on G-ARVM may well be from one of them.

As for the Lancs, the black one is a 'backyard recreation' and the silver one is indeed linked to a Discovery documentary. There's a bit about them here: http://forum.keypublishing.co.uk/showthread.php?t=86091

Hi Ian. I did recognise the Manx Norton. But I was especially curious about the one up on the bench in the eighth picture down. (Blue tank, girder forks, no engine.)

The Brough is a classic.
