Ok while superbikedan has my DP ive found myself a nice little project.
Pictures of frame as bought.
So ive stripped it down and give it a little elbow grease and i think it has come up quite nice reckon this will make a nice survivor

Nice one

Here's a spec and picture resource if you're going to restore it to how it would have originally looked.
