A dilemma? Any thoughts?
By: winchman Date: April 16, 2025, 6:34 am

I was all set to build a GN replica, but My son is having a good
clear out and found me a collection of bits Including a JAP
300cc engine, Albion 3 speed gearbox and we found this body on
Market place.
Any ideas welcome

Not sure what you would do with the engine and box but the body
is not far off a fair representation of a 1920 Monroe, here is a
Gitreville build of one...

Thanks thats a great start. The engine and Box will just about
fit in the back end behind the driver but its early days yet. I
have two motorbikes to finish then I will be selling a few
projects I am never going to get around to and this should free
me and the space up for the Cycle kart
Here's the engine and box we have.

212 cc limit on karts no gearboxes either. Nice idea but I’m not
sure it will be allowed. Ask the committee.
Regards Nick

Thanks for the reminder but that won't matter to me as I just
want to build it and possibly attend the odd show not race it.
I want an early car but as I cant afford or justify the expense
I might as well try to build one.
