Little budget goose this month............

Didn't have the time or parts to finish the build I wanted to have done this month so threw this lil fella together in the final hour..........

1985 mongoose M1

Picked it up as a survivor but it was missing pads, needed new tyres and grips and for some reason had the wrong seat. Grabbed the right parts from my inventory LOL and gave her a good clean and polish -  then put her back factory spec. (It even came with the original..... chain guard !  :shocked: ) but I couldn't bring myself to put it back on  :2funny:

It has an interesting brake set up but this is exactly how they came originally - rear caliper AND suntour coaster brake but no front :D
Mad as it seems this is how they are specced int he catalogue too.

Didn't have time to grab my normal outdoor garden shots but will try in the week..........

So some moody indoor jobbies for now.

Like I say a budget lil' fella but another model and year ticked off in my collection  :)

Original chrome ;)
Original decals ;)

























 :D
