great pick up   :coolsmiley:

It would be a crime to get this completely re done  :-\  It needs to stay as a survivor and just cleaned up. A bit of coke with tin foil will get rid of that rust, a bit of peek and bobs your uncle  :daumenhoch:

Great bike but needs to stay complete as it is buddy  ;)

Terry, it looks good in the pics, as all bikes do from a distance. But the forks have rusted through the chrome - the chrome on the cranks has flaked and rusted, as I said - I'll use as much as I can and keep the survivor aesthetic, if the forks are salvageable I'll clean them and lacquer them, but it'd be even more of a shame to leave it rotting  :daumenhoch: there is 'survivor' and then there's 'rat look' - not too keen on the latter  ;)

Certainly not a coke and tin foil jobby  :daumenhoch:

rad_pitt:
Here you go - this gives you an idea of the state of it, even a family share size bottle of coke wouldn't be enough  :D :











This is cool though  8)

Agree , coke & tin foil ain't sorting that out !  :2funny:
