In this video our friend Dave Mitchell introduces us to his low budget classic motorcycle restoration project - The 1967 BSA A65 Thunderbolt.

Dave purchased this bike as a rolling chassis and a box of engine parts.

His intention with this bike is to get this bike back on the road over the course of a few months and use it as an everyday bike that he can just get on and ride, all seasons.
