I have just found and read this thread. VERY cool work sir. I am in awe of folk who can make such nice stuff. It looks real good.When you are getting to the engine/clutch bit, shoot me an email, if you need a tip or two.I am sure you have the skills to do a conversion, looking at the pics shown.

Hi Neville Thanks for your compliments and all the great comments and compliments from all the guys here on the board. It's very encouraging and I wish I could get back at the work. As for the engine it will be last on the list. This was a running and raced engine so I plan to get all the other work done and run it in it's current configuration before making any other engine modifications. I'm looking forward to the pipe work also. Should be interesting. Thanks again to all.

Just credit where due Jim. All excellent work. From the research to the fabricating of the frame to where it is now. Pipes are going to be just as nice I bet. Good Luck

Yes, quality workmanship fo sho! What some of you don't know about is the years of research Jim put into this before he ever turned a wrench or fired up the welder. Jim has pics from multiple angles of every h2r he could get near or find on the web. He was at it so long, some of us wondered if he'd ever actually get to building it!! Well deserved recognition Pipewelder! You da man! (Oh ya... that's my gas cap on the tank too. A MAJOR piece of the puzzle! )

Was this project completed ? Awesome fab skills Pipewelder has taken a bit of a break from this build. He and Mrs Pipewelder bought a 'country estate' that needed a little TLC, so that's been taking up the bulk of his time for the last year +. I'm on his case to "git 'er dun" though so you might see some progress this winter. We'll see...

I don't think the Serial number lines up with the R engines. Might be stock cases with R clutch?
