BIG thanks guys  :daumenhoch:  Parts run down as follows:-

Survivor frame, fork and Tange Meriter Headset

Picked up this frame and fork from a member on BMXmuseum a while ago now and was going to restore it. When I got it, had a change of heart due to the condition of it. I just couldn't bring myself to strip all the history from it so I decided the next best thing was to build it with near to NOS or NOS parts as possible. I hope you like the finished outcome.

    NOS Tuf Neck stem
    NOS Gold Win bars

A well deserved thanks to all involved in helping me track down the parts I needed for this and for the guys who helped out with all the shipping from the US of A.

A special thanks though to keithd for sorting an awesome deal on the frameset for me, cheers brother.
