It was on a old dumping ground from the late 60's,70's i have found a identical one only 5ft from where this one was but the other just crumbled when i lifted it up, I also found a auto union hobby scooter pics of that to follow , I'm going to keep digging up the site and see what i find over the summer

Well spotted! There's a clip on you tube of a guy digging a split screen single cab out of the ground and taking it home, this reminded me of it

Rock that as is and you will surely win at patina.
Best put a bulb in that lamp, unless you're going for a daytime only MOT?

Yeah sure the bike came from a different place but if you want to take a trek over the car dump come prepared as with all the rain the brambles etc has grown up which has prevented me going there
