Re: Margate Meltdown
Not sure about this one
as it is quite a late registered bike (July 1974) which puts it amongst the"FS1-E" livery Candy Orange fizzys in the UK register to date? I have asked for the frame number which will tell us more as to whether "SS" or "FS1-E"?

Re: Margate Meltdown
This fizzy is not a "SS" model but more likely a Candy Orange FS1-E.
The frame number is *394-013502* and the non-matching engine is even later at *394-014169" (Pop Purple)
It was not registered until 04/07/1974 so almost a N-Reg.
This coupled with lots of non standard parts fitted has a massive detrimental affect on the value and I would say it is worth no more than £1,000 in my humble opinion!
I have just bought a similar earlier numbered fizzy with matching numbers and original seat etc for around this price.
