Well a massive thanks to Phil ( Sawzall ) and Dan ( SBD ) on the restore work for my knackered 1982 JMC Black Shadow.
Purchased this of ebay and when i got it, well it was'nt pretty, asked Phil if he could do something with it and sent it down to him, once Phil had done his thing, it was forwarded onto the best painter out there SBD, a nice new black coat added, few days later it was returned to me, some of Jim Melton's finest stickers and, well have a look at it.

Mine's chrome, I've got a bunch of red bits (and maybe a hint of blue) so they'll creep in to match headtube logo. It's got the original black decals on frame, it'd be wrong to get rid but I want red. :( Could go with black bits but got that combo already on a JMC and a few other bikes rocking chrome / black so after something different and use what's here instead of starting a shopping spree. Black seats, stems, cables, grips etc etc, a pain in the arse (££) for anything decent.

Anyone fancy hiring a coach, filling it with RADSTERS heading round to Dans to cuddle him and then down to Phil's to give him a good spooning?

i hear ya mate
you took that nice car of yours out for a spin yet???
Only twice, not had much time and not sure if I enjoy driving it, looks ace but I find it a hassle compared to anything modern. I'll be honest, I may have fooked up being impulsive :( Mrs wants to learn to drive this summer, may get her an mx5 or z3 with the money so I can knob about too when it's warm.

Yep, I like them and trust them, last couple of cars I've had have been 320's. Wish I'd bought one now, I like Z3's for their hairdresser image, be ok for pottering in. No room for the dog, that was the problem, MGB got a little bench.

i've got to say this, i have a terrible habbit of replying to a thread and not reading the start
of it properly, i've just read the start again and looked at the pics and there's no way i would have
known how bad the frame had been when i opened the box after delivery, it honestly looked like
it had been like many of the mint frames i get, think that says more about phils workmanship that it
even had me not knowing the history of how bad it was :daumenhoch:
-
It looks Great Marty :daumenhoch:
I,ve got one of those somewhere ;)
Well done Dan and Phil :4_17_5: :4_17_5:

This was another one the pair did for me, it was a Hutch Judge frameset and someone had welded rear mount brakes onto it :idiot2:, also had nasty welding on the forks, so same again Phil said send it down to me and then it was forwarded onto Dan as well.

I half banged a headset cup in on sunday, not bad progress for 3 months. I'm planning on having the rest of the headset in by september. :daumenhoch:
