This is the latest rebuild from Gavin Spencer's workshop.
This time it's a Laverda 3C 1000.
First photo is how it started.
This bike won best European Bike at the recent Stafford
classic Bike Show.
Next on the stocks is a Ducati SS 100, so watch this space.

That 3C turned out Very Nice.
Too bad this Gavin is 7000 miles away from me.
