In reply to all the messages I wanted to ensure you were fully aware of the condition of the parts
If you are interested then there is a priority list for those that have indicated an interest first. If they decide the part(s) are not for them then I will offer to the next in line or back to the forum
Bonnet - this has been in a shed at the bottom of the garden. I managed to extract it today and take a closer look. There are no hinges but the bolts and the catches are present.
Although the skin appears good there is a small amount of cracking the reinforcement but hasn’t extended to the skin. This with correct prep could easily be repaired by v prepping and then welding ideally by gas but mig or tig should work well. The seams look good and I’ve taken several pics of that area. I haven’t tried to dress this up, just privide the facts for you to decide.

Brakes
I have a near side and offside front brake assembly, one of which has a caliper still attached. The assembly needs blasting or wire brushing. There appears no wear ridge on the discs and I may disassemble and bead blast as I need new discs. If you want the whole assembly then I may just let these go and offweigh against a new set. The advantage is you can strip, Blast/brush, prepare and paint before swapping with your own. The backplates on these are shot- sorry Kishor!
There are a number of rear drums, one has already gone. They all need cleaning but again no wear ridge. Bead/brush clean and I reckon good to go with a flap disc bring the friction surface up. One of the drums has a chip, probably from over enthusiastic removal. Doesn’t affect operation. However the hubs are all intact so a new drum can be sourced and pressed onto the hub for a cheaper solution
There are also backplates one of which is the 1969 version with the rotary adjuster. I’ve taken a pic of the components and I think the still assembled hub is the other one.

Pic of the tank, I can’t find my endoscope to check the condition inside. If you are interested I will unseal it and try and get some shots inside of the neck and sender
