New Boardtrack Racer Project

Sometimes you just cant believe your luck. i was rummaging about at
Newark auto jumble on Sunday and found a Harley Peashooter
bottom end a 1926 B   350cc single.
So now another Board racer project on the go with almost a real deal motor.
Now i know i've no chance of finding a pukka OHV top end for it so i'm
gonna try and graft a Brit exposed valve top end on it.
Maby a J.A.P speedway or if a i'm real lucky a 4 valve twin port Rudge.

First thing though is to fix the bottom end which is proving difficult already.
The big end & drive side main bearings are knacker'd, cant find any parts
on the net at the moment so might have to adapt something else to fit.
