I have just acquired a 1968 R4. it is very sound with a nice interior. It has been standing outside for some time and is a bit tired looking but the decision really is whether to leave it as it is or completely restore it.
It does not look as though it has ever had any welding done.
It is in its original rather unusual dark green paint. It runs and drives fine although some work will be required for an MOt such as lights, wipers etc.
It does have a few dings and a little rust on the drivers side inner wing.
The clutch feels a bit odd and screethes a little.
I think I will leave it as 6 volt unless it causes problems.
By the way does anyone know what weight an early R4 is.
With a massive 45bhp it must be fairly light?
