I thought you might be interested to see how the Chapman's 500 turned out when it became a Deluxe after restoration by Steve Boncey. He also serviced a Grice and Young centre pin for me as well which is running beautifully now. Thanks for looking.

They look like new! What a great job
I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete.
