I have restored one with the correct plate and log book to immaculate condition - no fumes through the zorst - no fuel in the tank - EVER

I think the best restored TI in the UK

Had the seat base repaired (Small amount of welding to one side) re-painted - holder thing re-tapped, re-covered and posted back for £105 - from Leightons - and yes very pleased with it.
