Robs Norton FF

The latest picture you see is my desired shape for the Norton project. I can draw but not like John Keogh, so I have cut/pasted and etched in a thousand times to get this picture done. Its not far from the original sketch I did in 1998! Its all correct and in proportion as Royces engineered chassis is underneath the superimposed body and the roof exists! There are some difficult areas around the footwell which might have to be overcome. Also it might be difficult to get in the vehicle with the fairing coming back so far. Having driven Arthur Middletons machine last year in France it felt very natural pulling the legs back slowing down to a stop, OK his machine is light and the seat height higher. We shall see how it spans out. I was planning this week to bring the project back up to Bristol to a GRP shop to crack on with it, but transport seems to be a problem. Soon:-) Rob Ring
