Well, we are going to resurrect this one, I have already found a new con rod assembly which looks as if it is genuine AMC, we need a good useable +30 hepolite piston if poss to save the cost of a rebore.
I will carry out an in depth post-mortem shortly. I fear I will need a lot more.
Any Matchless is better than no Matchless,and I`m confident I`ll make a decent little bike out of this one; at any rate if I made a botch of it it`d still be better than before.

I have always maintained that a rough looking and well worn bike that runs like a clock, is 100% preferable to paint and chrome. Sadly people buy paint.
And you can`t ride paintwork on its own.
