AJS
« on: December 25, 2008, 11:53:37 AM »
Has anyone got any photos of an 1932 R8 AJS. A friend is about to start a restoration of this machine that has rested in a field for about 50 years!!
Cheers

Thanks Goldie I'll send it to him, it gives him a good basis to start from but I have no idea if there is any difference between the photo and a '32.

I am no expert, but i would have thought that there was not a lot of dfference, if any, between a 1930 and 1932 R8.

Why not ask the experts.
