New Member from USA Needs Help with ID

[brad neal]

Hello,
Just got my Greeves recently Frame number 60/3476 with Villiers Type 34A engine number 070D 1312. I believe it is a 1960 Hawkstone Scrambler?? Any help with ID greatly appreciated. I'm not sure if I can post pictures or not? But I will if I am allowed to do so. It is mostly complete except needs correct air cleaner, and fuel tank is dented up pretty badly, will replace if I can find one reasonably. Thanks for any help, Brad
