In the Cali Corner ... GT_Lover with an early DP build.
In the Leics Corner ... ED209 with a Ltd. Ed. DP build.
I've been helping Rob ( GT_Lover ) get hold of a DP as he is a bit smitten with building one, but then he turns round and challenges me to a 'friendly' build off between his resto and my rebuild as we will both have them finished at about the same time ( November ) ... so I had to accept >:D
I'm trying to raise the game with my rebuild as I have hopefully found a better match to the original Ni-Bronze colour, but Rob is keeping tabs on what I'm up to and is obviously no slouch when it comes to a sick build so I've got my work cut out.
We'll have a vote off at the end if I can set it up and some kind of prize to be sent to the winner from the looooooser. Stakes is High :daumenhoch:
Rob's project started from this :

Ed's project stated from this :

Brett - its weird because when I saw the final colour I was shocked as its pretty dark in normal defused light, probably darker than I realised - we only saw that colour under inside lights where it picks up the tints and you see the full colour... in the sun it will look the pupz nutz ;D
I have built most of it now and it just looks lovely - but I need a sunny day to get a photo that will do it any kind of justice... come on SUN 8)
SO WANT TO PUT PICTURES UP... :2funny:
If its sunny tomorrow then I will.
I am SO FOOKING PLEASED :angel:
Good for you Ed. The colour was banging at creation :daumenhoch:

LOL, so now that both of ours are near completion do we need to pull the date forward? :D

Gotta stick to the 21st Robbo... unless Rob GTLover gets done earlier... don't think his is getting painted until the end of this week.

...'Thread of the Year' I think you meant to say :yahoo_silent:
:LolLolLolLol:

Ok here's my contribution to this thread,
1984 DP Firebird Freestyler frame number 4943
Neon Green (thanks SBD)
Haro Master bars (thanks Gashead)
Dia Compe 901's (thanks Gashead)
MX Tech 4's (thanks Gashead
SR Stem, top powdered by SBD (thanks Monkian and Dan)
Skyway tuff 2's (ebay)
Peregrine HP tyres (thanks jamroll)
Redline Flights and BB (thanks Stodgy)
Repro Decals (thanks Del)
Nikyo Headset (thanks JTsmooth)
Victor VP 565 pedals
Odyssey Chainwheel
Dominator Seat
Odyssey Slic Cables (thanks Stodgy)
Really pleased with the way its turned out, may change the chainwheel to a more traditional one but I fitted this as I had one as a kid and its a sentimental thing.
Heres the pictures, did them on the quick, may do more if needed.
Hope you like. :daumenhoch:

Cheers for the comments guys, not planning on building another bike for a while so I wanted something special to amuse me. :daumenhoch:
With regards to the axles, yeah they look a bit naff so may go the peg route although I may even cut them down and tidy the ends up...

Yeah I did actually want an 880 when I was looking for brakes and nothing came up, since completing the bike 2 sets have been offered to me, bloody typical!!
I'm going to leave the 901's for a bit and maybe change the front next year. :daumenhoch:
