Postwar Provost
Plus it looks like he's wearing one of the Spalding fibreglass helmets from that era. "Tin Lids" has that information, I believe.
I also recall, probably from "Winged Wheel Patch" that were was a small number, 50 comes to mind, of larger displacement (80 ci, I think) WLCs that were used only in Canada for high-speed highway DR work to and from Ottawa and so on. Did any of these survive, I wonder?
