OK guys heres the start of my ET build . It started out originally as a Kuwie KYZ F&F but the chrome was shot so perfect for ET paint. I had previously bought a drilled hotheart to do but sold it when this came up as i think its the closest i could get to an original et. Anyhow i will update as i get some progress.

So last night i said balls to the standard black bits and went with my heart and built it with gold . Hope yous likeit but tough if you dont lol ;) ;D

I haven't a clue on et builds (although it being jap and not USA never crossed my mind lol).
How come then this bike he's riding has a completely different chain wheel to the usual spider and ring that's in other posters and replicas.
Sorry if it sounds dumb but what I know about et stuff you could right on a stamp as although I appreciate the bike it's never interested me
