Description

Guzzi Lomax 223 nut and bolt restoration. Built on a refurbished galvanized Lomax Chassis with new Burton shocks, front and rear anti-roll bars, refurbished drive shafts and new kingpins. 29 litre custom aluminium fuel tank. New brake and fuel lines, master cylinder, rear brake cylinder and front discs. MWS knock on wire wheels with Firestone tyres. New mirrors. Custom exhaust. New lighting throughout.
Rebuilt Guzzi SP 1000, round barrel engine with new barrels and pistons, uprated EndDuraLast 450w alternator and reconditioned carburettors, (71 hp, 84 Nm torque @ 5200 rpm). New battery and starter motor. New Ignition Coils. Rebuilt, (by Rick Pembro), high ratio gearbox. Custom water jet cut dash with Smiths magnolia gauges, Lucas switches and large lockable glove compartment. Quick release Mountney steering wheel. Heated Cobra style seats. Le Patron floor change. Tonneau Cover. Professionally wired throughout. All finished in two pack British Racing Green. Drives and handles superbly. Registered as an historic vehicle but also has a new MoT. As an historic vehicle the car is also ULEZ and Crtit'Air exempt
As can be seen from above details the overall build cost has been considerable. An opportunity for someone to own what is essentially a new, high specification vehicle, at very significantly less than all similar alternatives. This is an exceptional Lomax that must be seen to be appreciated. A complete re-build with all new or fully reconditioned parts. The ultimate Lomax 223 tourer which will happily cruise all day whatever the terrain and passenger load. A really lovely looking car looking for a new home.
Selling at significantly less the the build costs as I wish to move on to a new project.
