Did you only keep the frame and forks though
and replace everything else for new, rather  than restore ?

Don't get me wrong it's improved it , not spoilt it  :daumenhoch:

Not seen a 90's Ammaco before ,, I'd still love to do an 82 Ammaco sport bmx , my first BMX  :smitten:

F&F and seatpost are the only original items. The brakes were shot and i didn't like the bars and i wanted to put skyways on.  The pedals were missing bearings when I stripped them so binned them and the crank will be used on another bike at some point.

I wanted something that looked similar to what I had back in the eighties and more importantly I had a very clear idea of what i wanted it to look like from the outset.

Glad you guys like it, really pleased with it, I think I will be stripping the original wire wheels and getting them finished in black with silver alloy nipples and black spokes/hubs for the next bike.
