Redline Proline II
Frosty:
Don't go too mad with the autosol as there have been a number of discussions about how abrasive that stuff is. You could try the old tin foil trick for any little rust spots, but to be honest looking at the pictures posted your f+f is looking in great survivor condition as is, certainly better than mine and I'm still undecided whether to get rechromed or build her as is!

Glad it's coming good m8 ;). And as Frosty said yours looks in sweet condition in your first pics. so it must sparkle now 8).
As for pedals m8. I'll be putting a set of my XcII's onto it. Pads i've not even seen any yet. Bars... I was going for a set early this morning on the Bay. I was at work so they ended up getting away from me. but i'm still keeping an eye out. Like i said before "No rush" ;D G.
kowalski:
ok new snaps, actually looks better in the flesh, camera setting is probably wrong
and finally a set of ukais turned up this morning which i have tried in dry check out the rear it doesnt look right, i have not tightened it up atall but there is too much thread on the inside and not a great deal on the outside, heeelllpppp :'(
Frosty:
Don't worry about the gap yet once your spacers are on and you crank the nuts up, the gat will close - all quite normal so far, frame looks very good :daumenhoch:
kowalski:
cheers frosty nice words, chrome is ok you know but its not mint, i may build it up first and see how it looks before i decide whether to get it re chromed or even powdered :daumenhoch:
