      Its not a LW or even a cool 88, but its an ex MoD none the less.

      You can see the MoD tag on the seat box, thats the only real id i have found, other than the fact that the engine is from a LW. The seat box could have been swaped out too, but the whole thing is brit army green underneath. (not the cheezy green you see in this pic)



      Orginal color:

      Gone and I miss her: 97 D1 5 speed
      04 DII
      08 D3 (LR3)

          All great pics so far. Anyone else? Surely these can't be all the MODs left on the planet!

                  Another Batus lightweight.

                  and here:


                  Sorry no pictures of the 109". It's still in pieces waiting for me to finish the frame over. Too ashamed to post anything yet. Story goes, that one served the British in South Africa. Must have been a parade truck because the body was in such excellent shape.

                              I kept the header, the cherry bomb is rotted out so its in the bin.

                              I just rigged something up to get a turbo mufler up and out of the way. I will take some pics when its done and post them.
