Frame has never been built up as far as I'm aware, old stock that I suspect was not completed before the demise of the nuke proof that was.

I don't think it will take any normal bb, it would need to have the frame threaded to allow a standard one to be fitted.

Certainly be up for fitting alloy rivnuts at some point, cheers for the offer.

You could always use some thing like this YST Sealed Threadless Bottom Bracket For Damaged Frames / Threads ?

Now that is good news!

So with that covered, the top bearing pretty common too, and the roller bearings known, it should just be the bolts, washers and the fork braces to go.

I saw a thread on here for custom head badges for £25. Was thinking of looking into it should the rest fall into place.

I do have the badge built in CAD. Also as an Illustrator artwork which would be used for etching it in brass.
let me know if you want it.
