Humber Beeston Clubman 1948 Restoration
I have now completed the restoration of this 1948 Humber Beeston Clubman and below are the finished Photos.
I am pleased with how it has turned out and have just written to the original owner who purchased it new in 1948 offering to take to him so he can see how it turned out (I promised to do this when he gave it to me). Can't wait to see his face when he sees it.

Humber Beeston Clubman 1948 Restoration
I have a set of the male bars but upon trial fitting I preferred the look of the female bars so decided to stick with them, the bike is now finished (see my post today) as original grips are impossible to find, I used Brooks Rubber Bar Tape on them, very comfortable to ride with.
