Mikael A came to the Scandinavian Vincent Rally at Sjögestads Motel on his Vincent. A Vincent who is of a very unusual model.
As a youngster in his 20s, he bought it sometime in the late 60s as a 1951 Black Shadow with a sidecar from Conways in London. The journey home with the new acquisition went from London via Switzerland and home. When frame and engine numbers were later checked out, it turned out that it was not a Black Shadow, but a White Shadow. That was a variant without a black-painted engine of which only 15 machines were produced. Apparently, some previous owner had painted the engine black.
Sivert helped with a restauration in the winter of 1986 - 1987.
