Going to start work on my '72 750GT soon, can't wait :vroom:
I have had in my garage for over 1 year now and finally have some time to start on her.

Thanks! I'm sure I will be posting here and there. Already running in to issues with brakes (Lockhede) and carbs (Amal) in trying to find re-build kits or complete replacements :cry:

For the brakes, I would encourage you to upgrade to modern BREMBO caliper[s], specifically the P108 bolts directly on with no mods.

The for the master cylinder I would recommend the Brembo 12mm REC unit and a stainless steel line kit.

The above is a kit with everything including a new EBC stainless steel rotor, of course each part is available individually in the Bevel Heaven store. If you have dual disks, I have matching pairs for the rotors and different 2 line kits specifically for P108 calipers etc. Give a call to discuss if need be during the week.

Thanks!!! Those look great. I guess rebuilding the Locheeds is out :(
I was hoping to keep her a original as possible. I had a feeling though.
So for the carbs I am assuming Dell's :) Unless there a rebuild kits for the original Amals?

Thanks again!
