At a regular 2000 manhours per year for the average working stiff, there's probably 5 years of steady highly skilled labour in the engine alone, never mind getting it into a period frame. Fancy showing up down the caf with one of these engines in a good frame. Say a Manx Cafe Racer! Definately not a DeltaBox. Now imagine adding post classic bits (disk brakes, tires, Rob North frame, etc.) Ah!, the power of one mans imagination, determination, skill, & resources! What a world we have at our feet.
