JMC IN NEED OF TLC

<< < (4/6) > >>

Mattdub:
Jon ,

It's a heap 'o junk mate , I'll be up at the weekend to collect  ;)

aerostylie:
I'm not clued up on how to restore rides, so what would be the first process in restoring that JMC ???

Would be good to see a step by step process ;)

Paul :)
 

muttley:
Would that rot have weakened the frame in any way?

Frosty:
Muttley,

That really depends on how bad it is. If the f+f is given the oxalic acid treatment then it will be possible to see what damage (ie how much tuing has been corroded away) has been done.

then I guess the next question would be if any tubes needed replacing/repairing, this may depend on the finish to be applied and also whether the bike is to be a show pony or work horse!!

Back in 1997 I saw a pk ripper frameset that had been found underneath a compost heap where it had been for 10 years. Should've bought it then, but I was into newschool bmx then.
