Old but new

Valve refacers have been on my eBay watch list for years, but they're quite rare, usually overpriced and invariably a long way away. But last weekend one appeared on Gumtree and near Manchester, and cheap. So i went and got it. It's a Wolf VR5 probably made sometime in the 1960's. It looked tatty but other than the drive belts needing replacing it works fine.
The past week i've stripped it down completely and degreased it. And this weekend  it's been repainted, regreased and partly reassembled. It's a nice little project really.
I'm on the search for drive belts, but i have a few leads, and it needs rewiring badly, the rubber on the flex is not very rubbery anymore, so I've cut everything off and will start from scratch.

Only 2 weeks to go till the next event at Shakey. I have a plan to calm it down off the line for this event, it always suffers tyre shake at shakey!
