boulogne racer build

[Tony Betts]

Hi colin,

Here is as close to an original Hartford I've got.

I've replaced the main plate as the original had been cut and adapted to fit a later chassis.

Here is a problem often suttered by sole traders.

There are alot of different parts to be sourced, press, weld, rivet, machine, heat treat. Etc etc. To make something like a complete set of hartfords. So they never get finished, as you also have to earn a wage at the same time.

So like this picture, you can fall to the problem of having half finished projects.
