Title: Uncle Fred's Rex
Post by: hairynugget on January 23, 2012, 07:49:13 PM

Hi All
Some of you may recall that last year I asked for help in identifying the motorcycle in an old family photo I had been asked to restore.

Well, that help was very generous and very swift in coming - unlike this message about the eventual outcome! - and enabled me to create
the collage that I had envisaged, including the postcard from Uncle Fred that started the whole thing off.

The final collage was very well received and a copy is attached here for all who may be interested, together with a copy of the retouched version of the original photo.

My thanks once again to R, Cardan & Welsh Wizard for the information received, and also to Mark Elder for allowing me to use his photo of BT 2221.

I hope this will be of interest.

Best regards

Ian
