Thanks for the kind comments, proud that it's a Jialing, only 25 on the DVLA database and BCP's got 3 of them.
It was meant to be brush painted to look like a two wheeled tractor, hence the Fergie T20 paint, but it turned out better than expected.
Total cost so far including sand (for blasting), paint, tyres, spares and MOT is a hefty £141.23.
Typical isn't it, just like buses, I've just been told about another 2 Cubs locally, not seen them yet. One is an early sixties (C100 I assume), the other is a 90's non runner.
Much as I would love to take them on, they would be bike No. 7 and 8, I've got to draw the line somewhere, so I'll pass the details on to a deserving member. Please don't hold your breath, I'll post as soon as I have the details.
Pete.

Pete, just buy them and bang them up on Ebay or the Facebook page, if you have the paperwork could be a little bit of beer money

That looks surprisingly good in Grey Pete. Good choice.
