Post by: Gnarlyscoots on June 25, 2011, 09:57 AM

Well guys, here it is, fully restored ready for the London Ride. Shame the sun is not out for the outside pics  :yahoo_silent:

A few thank you's have to go to:-
Firebird for cracking decals and pads  :daumenhoch:
AKGOFF for supplying me with a super Kashi Aero, GT layback and chrome Tech 5's at the last minute  :daumenhoch:
Bendycat Eleventeen for his amazing skills in re-vamping the old Kashi Aero into what you see here  :smitten:
Swivel and Rad_Pitt for the hard to come by Tuf Neck red anno seat clamp and the beautiful skinwall GT NOS tyres  :coolsmiley:
PS- Sorry Rad, I have dirtied the tyres  :'(
And not forgetting oldtired for the chrome seat clamp bolt  :daumenhoch: Cheers guys  :coolsmiley:

Anyhows, enjoy the pics  :daumenhoch:

is it just the angle or are the gt logos on the tyres very slightly out of line with the valve caps?

bin the crank set, chuck a sweet 1 pc in it, lovin the the hitman sticker

Post by: stidds on June 26, 2011, 08:38 AM

Very nice Terry, love the white and red. 

Definately lose the made in USA sticker even if it is for the dropout savers.  Find a made in the UK sticker instead.  Also agree with Pete, lose the cranks and stick a set of 1 piece ones in there and it will look perfect.

Great thats it's going to be ridden too  :daumenhoch:   ..... although i bet there's a few GT boys squirming at the thought of those NOS tyres being used  :shocked:  :D

 :smitten: bloody lovely that Terry, just keep those tyres away from dog sh1t as per the last pic  :LolLolLolLol:

To echo what the lads have already said, a nice one piece would finish it off so well  :coolsmiley: (I have a freshly painted Takagi 175 that you can have for peanuts, just cos it'd look good on that bike  8) )

Awesome build mate  :Great_Britain:  :4_17_5:
