Avro:
Keep it coming! Hot Hearts do seem to lend themselves to custom builds.

Taipan:
Looking great!  :4_17_5: keep the pics coming as you progress,nothing like restoring parts to suit the build  :daumenhoch:

BMX1973:
That going to be a nice build with a different theme  :)

Bmx Brookes:
I finally found half an hour to put the decals on the hotheart tonight, it looks good in my opinion but I’m not keen on the brown showing through the white lettering, when we all build these bikes I’d like to think we all try to get them as good as we can and it’s the smallest of things that niggle at us, this build has some niggles and I’ve hardly started, the brown showing though is one of them!

Anyway here’s the F&F decaled up!

Sorry for the slow progress but that’s how I build em  ;D

Avro:
I am building a black framed bike at the moment and I feel your pain with the white decals.
You will never be happy. Did Delcals know you were putting them over a dark colour, let alone a dark/light stripe? Maybe get them redone printed white over white, although I suspect Decals would have already done this. Get cues from the originals, were there decals over stripes back then? I have not checked but I do not think the stripes on the forks were in paint originally but were part of the decal? Pretty sure the stripes were decal also over a base?
