Title: New project on the way!
Post by: pickle on June 20, 2012, 05:59 PM

Been on the hunt for one of these for a long time and after a bit of a chat with a bloke on eBay who said he had a couple of beats, I couldn't believe it when I saw the pictures.  The bloke wanted a fair bit to post so huge thanks go out to Paul (monkian) who stepped up and popped round to pick her up for me.  She needs the powder stripping as he's covered the AD lugs and filled in the detail on the fork dropouts a bit.  A few pictures thanks to Paul! Can't wait to get her shipped off to SBD  :daumenhoch:
