Yep your right not so much hard work more perseverance, but the paint removal is nearly done now. When frame and other odds and sods come back it will fly back together, whilst waiting for that will do a lot of other prep in the meantime to speed things up later. Hopefully won't be long before it takes it's place amongst the others. Nice work by the way on the changes you do to make them voyagers look like a bike by getting rid of all the crap on them

Engine just about ready for re-paint hopefully this Saturday been a painstaking task but just about there, First pic shows engine initially

The engine looks good and clean now. Have you decided what type of paint, and colour you will use?

Hammerite has always done a great job in the past, so will be sticking with that, was thinking black for a change then thought any chipping will make the engine alloy stand out due to being silver. So it will be an Hammerite Silver smooth sprayed not brushed. Have the sump off following removal and in readiness for re-fitting, so will test on that first.
