Description

Matching numbers (cases # 93 ) and engine/frame ( DU 166 ) completely & professionally restored 1963 Bonneville. This extremely low engine number establishes this as only the 65th unit construction Bonneville ever built. ** I was contacted by several people that suggested that some bidders might have been reluctant to bid because they thought the reserve might be too high. I have changed the listing to BUY IT NOW. Also. I mistakenly did not make it available to International bidders. Will sell anywhere in the world. Please confirm International shipping. currency exchange and import duties before buying the bike. I can recommend U. S. shippers that can get it to a port of exit. Thank you. **This is the final bike from my collection to be sold and it was never ridden while stored inside my home. but has been started and runs very well. Gas tank has been sealed but never saw fuel. The new. and correct for 63 only. exhaust has never seen service. ( I start my restored Triumphs with a lawn mower gas tank and a set of old. used pipes so they don't discolor. ) Everything is either new or rebuilt. ENGINE & TRANSMISSION: New bearings. seals. valve job. . 040 bore. standard crank. Rebuilt. correct 376 AMAL carbs with new velocity stacks. Starts easily and has great oil pressure.

Tires are new correct Dunlop K70's. New RK rear chain & Triumph sprockets. New seat from Coventry Spares. ELECTRICAL: New cloth-covered wiring harness that has not been altered or cut. Converted to 12 volt. negative ground system with Boyer & Tympanium. Headlight is correct and original Lucas 700. Original tail light frame the includes the plastic license holder tube. (see photo) Original 6volt stator. rotor. points. condensers are included. EXHAUST: 1963 was the only year to attach the headers on the lower engine mounting bolt. These are correct. (see photo ). New. correct headers & mufflers. PAINT: Supplied by Hutchinson & painted locally by Brent Budgor to exact factory design. New badges. styling strips. cap . petcocks & fuel lines. GAUGES: SMITHS Chronometrics rebuilt by Greg Poirier with the correct 140 mph speedometer used only on the Bonneville.

EXTRAS: Original Triumph factory sales brochure and owner's manual ( both printed in England ) parts manuals ( 63 had no photos. so both the 62 & 63 are included ) ; magazine article; and any parts remaining from the restoration ( see photos ).
