SOLD - 3 1/2 Strada, barn find in Italy

[Marco64]

Hi,
I have here in London a barn find 3 1/2 Strada, registered in Siena (Tuscany) in June 1982.
I have a photocopy of the italian logbook, a transport receipt, a receipt for payment written for me from the person appearing on the logbook. I have registered it with NOVA last autumn as soon as it arrived.
I Will find some pictures (it's hidden in a lockup) but to start with I wanted to know if there is any interest...
The bike was last on the road in 2008 according to insurance voucher.

The bodywork is complete and in very good condition (tank, side panels, rear fairing and both bumpers) but painted by the owner in metallic burgundy! All badges are missing.
The chassis is perfect, covered in countriside dust from the inside of a very dry barn. Not a single sign of rust or damage, will polish nicely. The chassis number is clearly visible and unmolested.
Electrics unmolested and complete except that the indicators are missing.
Seat present (ugly original).
Engine complete and turns over.
Carbs not bad looking and throttles moves freely.
Clutch feels ok.
Front twin disks, rusty surface, calipers still not leaking.
Rear drum brake works.
Sproket seems unused and so does chain.
Exhaust manifolds present complete and solid, would come up nice after blasting and coating but the silencers... I had to scavenge amongst cicken droppings where the owner said he last put them after "having them painted" for hours then I gave up!
The wheels are the "yellow" alloy style and are in good condition.
So far I have taken all body parts off and carefully boxed, to ascertain condition of chassis and wiring, and removed right carter to see which belt to order (an "A" incidentally). I can leave as is, or reassemble!

I have overstretched myself with the number of restauration projects on the go so I want to know if someone out there is interested. She will scrub up nice in no time in the right hands!

I would say £1000 for a quick sale... Comments welcome!

Everything is in the pictures except the original twin seat and the twin exhaust manifolds, both come with the bike. Only things I don't have are the 4 badges (tank and side panels) and the two silencers.
Visible on the floor (dismantled to prepare list of parts needed from NLM) are air box, carburettor float bowls, pedals, manual and solenoid fuel taps, cylinders to manifolds nuts and half-moon (solid!) inserts, horn. The wiring is original and unmolested

Lastly, here is a pic of the paperwork. Questions welcome.

I am open to reasonable offers, I need the space and I'm just looking to recover the costs I incurred.
