sadly there are no surviving pictures of the BSA ,
I got it literally as a basket case ( well a frame and four big cardboard boxes to be precise )
although it was registered to the post office it had a fishtail exhaust and two seat saddle with the rear of the saddle attatched to the original rack when I got it ( usually post office bikes had a single sprung saddle )and was in green and cream,
but as I said it was in a sad way and all in boxes
I sprayed the frame dark metallic blue and the tank black with red BSA logos.
I rebuilt the engine with the carb on a pipe that made the air filter face the front of the bike giving me a very basic forced air induction system which helped increase acceleration and top end a bit.
the only pictures of it were borrowed and lost by a mate of mine .
I think he was jealous because he had a chopped Honda Benley (ugh )
If I had rebuilt it in its original guise it would have looked like the photo below and be worth a few bob now
