[bult360]

I have just aquired a 1970 bultaco matador prototype mk4 sd ,one of 25 built for the isdt in el escorial in Spain in 1970 , this bike was ridden by a belgian called Jean crossett . It was then bought from fx bulto himself by WI (Ivor) Smart of Wrexham after he followed it in the 1970 event in el escorial . Ivor then rode it in the 1971 event in the Isle of man winning a gold medal in the process ,he rode it in a few events afterwards and then stored it for 30 odd years . I saw this bike when i went to look at another bultaco never thinking i would get the chance to buy it , unfortunatly Ivor died a couple of years ago and the bike passed to one of his sons who kept it for a while and then decided to sell .It realy is in very original condition with its scrutineering marks from not only its iom outing but also its 1970 debut in Spain . I would realy be very grateful if any body has or knows where i can get fotos of either event showing the bultaco 1970 N0 226 1971 NO 154 ,Thanks in advance Pat kean
