Is it going to be an original spec or upgraded aftermarket parts ?

I’d love to do it original but already have quite a few spare parts that will suit it and I’m too impatient to wait around for the correct parts to come up at the right price. I’ll probably get it built then slowly change parts to the original spec.

It has Dan considering the state it was in. It’s not great close up but looks good from a distance.

After a lot of oxy baths and elbow grease I think the f&f are as good as they’re ever going to be. I’m pretty pleased with the result as I didn’t think it would come up this well.
I’ve put a new set of decals on from Del as a few were missing and the rest were faded and scratched.
Got a few more parts this week too.
Black fluted post off Carl in2bmx given the wet and dry treatment.
Repop Kashimax aero off wini with decals off Del.
And an SR 420 stem from France ready for a resto.
