53 Thunderbird, Finnish Stylee





Magnus from across The North Sea in Finland, sent a couple of shots of his '53 T'bird in front of the log pile. 
He says this is the fifth incarnation in the eight years he's had it. Still running the original barrels, albeit at + 0.060, the iron head sports  twin 928 Concentrics through a manifold conversion. E3134s and a Lucas K2FC take care of getting the bangs in the right place.


The front end is Husqvarna with inverted Tomaselli clip-ons, and a '71 - '72  Conical front wheel.
Gotta love those flanged rims.  as well.

Nice One Magnus
