1952 Claud Butler Massed Start #522513 (skip find)

Cheers Anidel,
Plan is to re-spray her in the original Purple with gold box lining, as I’ve got me a second hand Beugler I’m itching to try out….

Jealous now, want one..

Tough to get hold of at reasonable price, especially in the U.K. it’s taken me a year of eBay snipping whilst sticking to a maximum budget. Finally got this one when the auction finished early on a Sunday morning, I guess the other watchers where tucked up in bed!

Cool, start your own thread here in readers wives, even if it's just a specification and a bunch of photos to start with.

Excellent work, it would be great to see some close up details, always good to have as much reference as possible. Have you thought any more about starting a thread? It doesn’t matter that you’ve already finished. Just really good to have for reference.

Subbed, so that I'll get notifications when you start working on her again next year

Great frame, great hands she's landed onto, looking forward to hear more

Peachy - apologies for the old post revival but it came up in a search result- did you ever have a play with the Beugler? Missed a couple reasonably priced Beuglers recently on eBay but I'm desperate to get my hands on one and try out striping. Did you have any joy with it?

A bit OT in some ways but, after reading an old Cycling this morning reporting on the Milan Show, I learned that Gnutti later became Ofmega - or at the very least there was a connection. Every day's a school day as they say.
