Hi,
My name is Guillermo (William for English speakers) and I'm from Uruguay.
I own a 1955 Matchless G80S which I rebuilt from the frame up. I still haven't figured out how to post pictures. I know the tank badge is not the correct one.
I'm also restoring a 1952 Zundapp KS601, still on the first steps.

Cheers
Guille

Thanks!

I need to change the fuel tank badges and get a set of decals for the next paint job.
I'm also trying to save some money for an Alstom alternator.
