BSA Bantam D1

I restored this bike back in 2006.  As you can see from the photo it wasn't in the best condition when I got it. It is now fully restored and on the road.  It has a 1949 engine fitted into a 1953 frame. With a 12 volt ignition and lighting system. I sprayed it in an original Mist Green colour, using a synthetic enamal paint. The most time consuming job was getting the pin-striping on the tank right.
