1941 Matchless, Military Model G3. Single cylinder 350CC. I purchased this bike in 1985 while on assignment overseas. I rode it back then and since it has been stored in my storage. Engine turns fine. Frame is straight. Fuel tank is dry and appears clean. Bike is quite complete. Sold as-is; as a project, requires restoration, no guarantees direct or implied. Buyer must inspect before making final decision, Local pick-up only. Will assist with shipment with buyer accepting all cost and insurance.

And a Velocette engine!

A trifecta of Pre-Unit Bullets: a Red Deluxe 500, a Green Standard 500, and a Black ES 350.

Gordon May rode one of those from Manchester [England] to Vietnam.
His was in somewhat better condition though.

"it has been stored in my storage"

Yeah, where was that? Under a bridge near the river?
So badass my Enfield's actually illegal  in India. Yet it squeaks by here in Virginia.

Some of these even survive in India.
