given the 50/60 history, it makes me wonder why it has a fairly recent age related plate.

If I remember correctly it has a modified coil crankcase and a Wade blower driven by vee belts.

I met Warin Kelly a few years ago.
He lives about 25 miles from me and still had a couple of sevens in his garage at the time.
The price seems fair for what it is and its history.
