• A very handsome BSA ZB Gold Star
• Beautifully restored around 2000 and little used since
• Old Style V5C on file

Built-up as a homage to a 1949 ZB32 Gold Star Scrambler, the engine in this handsome BSA (number ‘ZB32GS 159’) was despatched aboard its original frame to Mr I.D. MacIntyre of Mallaig on 6^th May 1949. Reputedly fitted to a B31 by the time a previous keeper tracked it down to The Orkneys in 1990, the powerplant has since been transplanted into the current BSA ‘plunger’ frame as part of the Scrambler’s creation. Mervyn Stratford was tasked with refreshing the engine, while Clive Repik rejuvenated the other components and oversaw the final assembly. The BSA’s then custodian spent hours sourcing such correct parts as the close-ratio gearbox, front wheel, special oil and fuel tanks, and 10TT9 Amal TT carburettor. The completed BSA really looks as if it could have been factory built! Post completion, the Scrambler attended the Isle of Man TT and a BSA Owners’ Club International Rally in France. Scarcely ridden since joining the late owner’s collection, this impressive homage will require recommissioning prior to use. It is offered with an old style V5C and BSA Owners’ Club correspondence.
