I'd welcome any thoughts you have. I really know nothing about it other than it's a 1967 A65L. The forks don't look original to me, but what do I know? I'd appreciate any sharp-eyed and knowledgeable comments.

Well, the engine looks great and it's all cleaned up well!
You've got your work cut out now!

looks almost rideable,
the US seem to like the use of bungy straps, Ive had two on two of my imports.
front end a bit off putting as no mudguard, my latest didnt have one either but I think original

Looks better than my purchase.  I am still wondering if I have been a fool.  I am sure you will enjoy the restoration
