 Re: My 1960 AZ
Welcome to the forum, Simon. I hope you received the sticker (eventually)! That looks very smart - Do you know much of it's history - did you personally import it? Is it still running it's 425cc engine?

 Re: My 1960 AZ
I did thanks Neil. I bought it from a guy near Bristol about 8 years ago, it's been a project ever since but it's finally got MOT and tax so I'm hyped about it at the moment. Still some things to do, but I'm taking it out every few days...(as long as I'm back before nightfall! - dynamo issues).
It had a 12 hp 425, but I've recently had a 425 AYA (dyane) engine transplant, which almost doubles the horsepower!
More details and pics to follow.
Simon.

 Re: My 1960 AZ
I guess that's the engine about which Rick phoned? Wouldn't have had as much of an increase in power running on one cylinder... ken cinnamonjuly wrote: It had a 12 hp 425, but I've recently had a 425 AYA (dyane) engine transplant, which almost doubles the horsepower!

 Re: My 1960 AZ
Only cheap cover at the mo, due to lack of funds. Breather out of stock so driving around slowly and avoiding motorways!
