c.1963 Norton 350cc Navigator project Registration no. 694 YVX (see text) Frame no. unable to locate Engine no. 104366 19 The Navigator was the first derivative of the all-new Jubilee 250 twin that had been introduced in 1958. Designer Bert Hopwood's original conception had called for integral cylinder barrels and 'heads, but convention won the day and separate components were used in production. Built in unit with the four-speed gearbox, this modern-looking engine was installed in a Francis-Barnett derived frame with fabricated 'down-tube'. Towards the end of 1960 the 350cc Navigator was announced. The motor was bore and stroked and the cylinder block became a one-piece casting. Otherwise changes were few, while the cycle parts were up-rated with the Roadholder front fork and 8' diameter brake. Little is known of this incomplete Navigator which was acquired for the vendors collection over 20 years ago and is therefore sold strictly as viewed, offered for restoration. The engine turns over. Offered without documents, the machine is not recorded on the HPI/DVLA database. Accordingly prospective bidders must satisfy themselves with regards to the validity of the vehicle's registration number prior to bidding. Key not required Footnotes: All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.
