Norton P11 from 1967 ( parts basket case )

I have a dream......
I want to restore mine Norton P11 from 1967
I only got a not complete basket case with old rusty parts

What do I have:

frame with custom papers from usa
swinging arm
oil tank
battery case
footpegs front and back
gear box
engine with cilinder (barrel)
petrol tank
front hub
high pipes
rear brake and foot brake
and more but not really can use that

So if the engine and the gearbox is ok...I might start collecting the other parts
Just because this a very special Norton.

So you can say I'm looking for some things, mayby you got it? ;-)

here a picture of the high pipes

this week I also get te chrome silincers for the p11

Here's my new ride: Triumph TR6R 650cc Tiger

I knew that this bike was for sale because I also knew the owner and he was a man above the 70, and couldn't start the bike anymore.
Even got problems with his wrist and so the clutch was a hell for him.
Always stood in the garage and you can see that at the bike
Well look for yourself

IS IT BETTER TO LIVE YOUR LIFE BACKWARDS

Have you even thought what happens when you would live backwards? Seems to me much more enjoyable. But read on.To begin you stand up from the dead, a spectacular beginning ... If you get yourself out the coffin by your family and best friends, who welcomes you and they all have a flower. Then you should do a year or 20 nice things whatever you want to do, gardening, occasionally a trip at half price, staying in bed whenever you want and check every month your pension paycheck. On a day there is suddenly a guy for your frontdoor with a golden watch. He also offers you a well-paid job. As the years go by, you also get more and more sense to work, you feel that your health is getting better, you can have cigarettes as many as you like, because your lungs are becoming cleaner. You can drink what you want, the hangovers are getting smaller. You loose your belly without doing something for it. In the beginning you have 1 time sex a year, but on the last at least 10 times a week. At a moment you have to go to school but you knows everything, so you don't have to study. And the last years of your life you can play in the childrensgarden, nagging and annoying, and you can eat candy as much as you like, because all your teeth you got, you loose anyway. Than a few months to a woman's breast, then waiting for 9 months and then vanishing in a big massive orgasm ...........;-)
