a 4-valve "Racer"

[hristo.kiskinov]

Hi,
this summer I have finished a 4-valve Ariel "Racer".
Some pictures are attached.
The history of this project was simple. In 2007 I have bought a VH32 engine from Sweden as a spare engine for my VG32.
After rebuilding, because my VG32 is still in good shape, I have decided that it would be a shame to see this engine only collecting dust on its stand.
I have found a "bastard" Ariel in parts for the important components and you can see the result: an Ariel 1930 Model A frame and Sturmey Archer gearbox with an Ariel VH32 4-valve engine and Ariel 1928 girder forks.
Best regards
Hristo
P.S. The pictures appeared reverse. No idea why. Can a moderator help?

Very nice. It looks like its dust gathering days are over.

What a stunning machine, and a picturesque house setting as well. Great job.

Hristo - not sure what you mean by reverse, that might be the order that they appear in.
However, I've turned the images right way up!
