Fella could not believe it when i picked it up it was in such good condition must of been under a sheet in a garage somewhere, the wheels have got a few big patches of rust and there are some scrapes etc. Yep and the pads are original :)

Got one myself - heavy as fook, too short to ride properly but pure nostalgia everytime I wheel it out for a quick spin round the block as I had one in '82 and had to get another when I got into this hobby :daumenhoch:

Love the decals - mine were done in red, white and blue but those are ace :smitten:

i'm pretty sure the frame is the same as the silver star too, i think they just used different parts. you had a chance to take a pic of the seatube decal.  :daumenhoch:
