I bought it! M92 Sherpa T 350 (325cc). It runs after 40 years + in a barn! I'll finally have a Bultaco trials bike!

It runs after 40 years in a barn! (the blue Sherpa)

http://cemoto.tripod.com/list.html 75th ok Matador MK4 SD 2377 10/1970 75,000,001 to 75,002,377 TT VIN/Serial no. B7500035 odd - the steering head VIN/serial no. indicates Matador but the body work is Alpina. I'll check the engine no. at sunrise. 135 ok Pursang MK8 250 4280 8/1974 135,000,001 to 135,004,280 Cross VIN/serial no. PB1350955

Today I concluded the purchase of the following two Bultacos: VIN/serial no. PB13550955 and VIN/Serial no. B750035. The first I surmise is a Pursang of presently unknown displacement; the second an Alpina I am guessing, again of unknown displacement. It's been a long day, so when I recover I will search this and other sites to determine which models and displacements I have actually acquired. The seller has many - as many as 8 more - Bultacos in various states of integrity and disarray, including unused engines still in crates and naked frames, with a plethora of related parts, again in a wide variety of conditions. He is collating serial numbers at my request. I'll provide more information on this cache of Bultacos as I recover and receive information from the seller.

I've considered a Defender, but this particular Jeep is unique = 401ci/330hp EFI AMC motor. The modifications were done by two US Airforce helicopter pilots, the two prior owners. The work done reflects the military precision by which they conduct their professional lives. This was a primary factor in my decision to buy this particular vehicle. New Bilsteins all four corners

Thanks! I'd love to get both. My conundrum is not just refurbishing both at the same time, but they have competition for that bank account; JEEP CJ7 (JEEP is an acronym for Just Empty Every Pocket) The seller has 4 or 5 "parts" bikes - I'll see them tomorrow afternoon. I'll take pictures and post.

Thank you very much Greg; the blue Bultaco is also available. I'll see and compare both of them tomorrow, then decide which of the two I'll purchase. The seller has 3 or 4 more "parts" bike so that may prove extremely helpful. I also have a motorcycle mechanic on cell phone standby to advise. I hope to complete the purchase and become a regular poster here. Thanks again. Karl in Arizona.

Hello all - I'm a veteran sportsbike rider - Ducatis and Suzukis - but I started decades ago on a Yamaha enduro. I was just offered a 1970 Bultaco Sherpa T 350 that has sat in a barn for the past 40 years. It does not run, but the piston is not seized and turns over in the cylinder head. Are there adequate supplies of parts to restore this gem in the rough, or am I self-inflicting major brain damage if I do this project bike? Thanks!
