I love seeing survivors like this.  I think it's a shame that so many survivors get restored back to showroom condition.  You loose all the history that goes along with the bike. 

I reckon in the future, people will appreciate bikes in survivor condition more than they do now.  It's like when you buy an antique today and you are told not clean it as collectors value the natural patina that takes so long to develop and gives the piece its character.

I initially thought Ammaco so google imaged it  :)

SoundByte:
If it is an ammaco freestyler then it's not that model, cos there are some differences in the design  ???
