Lot 206

Property of a deceased's estate, c.1952 Triumph 498cc Project

Property of a deceased's estate
c.1952 Triumph 498cc Project
Registration no. not registered (see text)
Frame no. 32142
Engine no. None Present

Repainted in non-standard colours a very long time ago, this believed Speed Twin almost certainly dates from 1952, a conclusion also supported by the registration (Kent 1952). There is no guarantee that the (detached) engine is from this frame, but it is of a similar age and is probably a Speed Twin engine from circa 1952. It should be noted that the engine number has been removed. Accordingly, prospective purchasers must satisfy themselves with regard to the condition, suitability and origin of the machine's component parts prior to bidding. It should also be noted that the registration 'PKL 690' is not recorded in the DVLA/HPI database; therefore the machine is offered unregistered and without documents, its history unknown. Sold strictly as viewed.
