generallee:
My holy grail has always been the early 90's anodised purple pk ripper... and ive now acheived it with a little help...
Here is a sneakpeak of my latest project... paul lawson at Custom Colour Anodising did this for me... he wasnt keen on doing frames, but I begged him and told him not to worry if it didnt come out perfect.. and good on him, he did an amazing job. Paul now says after doing this one he would do others too... just make sure you hand him your aluminium frame already HIGHLY poslihed.. as thats the way to get results... I took off the tatty decals and spent hours polishing with peek and autosol etc...
so - here it is before..

and heres a sneak peak of after....

I have everything to build this, apart from time... but im working on it!

now heres the full frame with the headtube sticker on...


and now all decalled up and ready to go! The frame looks brande new. The dropouts were mnt anyway, but this is without doubt the nicest frame ive ever resto'd!

Frosty:
Nice colour Steve, can't you take it to the jungle and get it built there ;D

generallee:
£50 for the anodising job fellas... amazing value for money. Theres postage both ways on top of that and of course the polishing etc... but worth every penny - it arrives with me today - this photo is what paul took before he sent it!
Will post up more pics when Ive got it!
