Recommended Posts

Well I've finally got a Harris after 40 years of wanting one,aint pretty at the moment but it will be (hopefully:)) Frame isn't as rusty as it looks,picked it up on Saturday at Melbourne Raceway,it gone off to be blasted clean and primered for the time being,plan is turbo oil boiler,Spondon arm,T595 front end,Pretech calipers and at the moment 5 spoke Mille wheels,I have found a pair of 3 spoke CMA's that I quite like though,also the 595 front end is already set up for a Mille wheel so I may well take that route,seat unit is yet to be decided on.

It's been a while,cut a load of shite off the frame,subframe was awful and the shock mount cross tube looked like it was made of exhaust tube!! So a length of new tube is on the way to replace the subframe in the same style as the original Harris one and obviously the shock mount tube.Spondon arm is now fitted to the frame and the engine is pretty much mounted bar a few spacers.

So,we now have the engine mounted properly as well and shock mount made ready to be brazed onto the shock tube which also needs brazing into the frame,picking a Nitron remote reservoir shock up tomorrow,then the mount and tube can be fitted to the frame. Next job then will be to make the shock mount to fit to the Spondon arm that's going in it,then it can be put onto its wheels and we'll have a roller.The engine might not look level in the pic but it is,just how pic was taken. :banana:20211217_130031.thumb.jpg.c9af4d8b747568828189fae5fdec7e07.jpg
