See, theres the other problem. Until I can be 100% sure what the hell this thing is, I don't want to start gathering parts for it. I was told when I got it it was a Triumph, others have said the same, until now. So, I dunno.

Get a pic of the entire frame side on, can't really get afeel for the rear end from the shots you've posted. The front end doesn't look like a pre unit Trumpet but it could have been heavily modded over the years?
