This Wall Auto-wheel was acquired by the vendor in the late 1960s. Obtaining a Raleigh Tradesman's delivery bicycle shortly thereafter, of similar vintage to the Wall, he intended to use it for shows and occasional weekend use. In 2018 BF 8737 won 'Most Original Motorcycle' class at the Scottish Motorcycle Show. It is listed in the VMCC machine register as 1914. Now surplus to requirements, the vendor hopes a new owner can give the Wall some use once again. Dry stored for some years, it has a magneto fault, and is in need of a tube or tyre for the driving wheel. The machine is sold strictly for restoration, and may well provide a new owner with an economical entry for the Pioneer run, subject to certification. Documentation comprises a current V5C, a prize rosette and sundry papers.
