Tim Stafford Restorations

09/17/2025

Tinkering on our 1966 Alpine (ish) (or police 🤷‍♂️) white 1966 R69S. It’s a match to the original bright white R60/2 we restored (see our website). The tank was fitted now just to set up/modify the steering plate stops.

Made some headway on the low mileage Bristol Gray 1969 R69S today. Almost finished the short block, but I ran out of timing gear cover gaskets 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️
I ordered more yesterday.
Also need to paint the jugs over the weekend.
They are bored and ready otherwise.

All test miles done (700+😜) and going to put the 1972 R50/5 (R60/5 inside) on Bring a Trailer.
If you’re at the Quail Show next weekend, come check her out! She will be in the BaT booth.

Been spending a decent amount of time braking in 1972 R50/5 the last month or so.
Such a creampuff!
