Has anyone put a Hodaka engine in a Wassell frame?

Somebody did (was it Wassell himself, or did someone on this side of the pond order the frames and do it themselves?). They called it a "Challenger". It was circa 1974 and they used the 125 Wombat motor and air cleaner assembly.
I don't know any more than that about them, but it definitely did exist.
