Ducati 350 Forza 1978 dismantled for restoration or parts and spares

For sale. My dismantled Ducati Forza 350cc.   I acquired the bike some time ago from a friend who rode it from Spain. Hence the Spanish plates. Be aware the bike is not registered in the UK and does not have a V5 log book.   The bike was fully assembled when I  got it but it hadn�t been started up in five years.   Not a barn find! It was stored in a stable. Before I dismantled the bike it was as in the first pic. I was able to start the bike. I have a video of that somewhere. Following on from the research I did and after talking to various people it does appear to be a fairly straight forward procedure to get the bike registered. I spoke to DVLA and they explained that if I wanted an age related plate then I would have to produce evidence of the year of manufacture. I was told there is a date stamped into the clocks but that may not be enough and the only real way of knowing would be to strip down the engine as there is a month/year stamp on the fly wheel. See pics.  So im assuming the bike was built in November 1978. Plus I wanted to see what the insides were like. I�ve ran out of time to rebuild this bike. So its on here to see if someone wants to take it on. There is wear in the engine the �ring gear� for the starter is worn and there�s to repair the oil pump drive.  The kick start return spring is broken. The electric starter does work. The piston has +0. 5 stamped on the crown. There�s scoring on the bottom of the liner and the bottom of the piston skirt. Missing items are the fuel tank cap. key. battery. I was as careful as I could be not to lose any parts. There is some info about these bikes on the net. I think I remember there was an engine on ebay a while ago for ?1500. I�ve seen parts for sale for this model online. I think im right in saying that These were built under license in a Spanish factory. I took a lot more photos as I wanted reference as I stripped it down. Please feel free to ask any questions and I will answer them as best I can. I�m not going to be greedy so its going on here with no reserve.

cheers
