1940 G3WO Matchless in France

A friend of mine has a 1940 WD G3WO Matchless panel tank model which he would like to sell. It has remained in France and has been restored to civilian colours but could easily be turned back into a WD bike. He is loooking for £4,000 for it so if anyone is interested do contact me off line.

Yes I also fitted H cams which I bought from AMC Spares. The bike goes great but the engine clatters on over run, which I don't remember from before. So I want to try standard cams as an elimination exercise. Ron
