Hi folks, this is my first post since I don't actually have an Ariel. I have a T140 and an RE 350cc but have recently purchased a mystery frame that is some kind if Ariel 250cc. Can anyone shed some light on it please? It's 1931.
Cheers,

Olly

Have you got a photo of the frame number ? That should help

I don't know what it is, but it is not a 250 Ariel from 1931.

The gearbox connection is sidevalve AJS, the saddle tank makes it 1928?+

Whatever it is, it isn't an Ariel frame with that frame number.
