Then spotted a nice windstyler in chrome of the bay:

Thought I would have a lovely build by just swapping over the parts, but when I did it, It didnt look quite right somehow :-\
Changed over the seat and swapped the bars, which I had powdered and also changed the chainwheel set up. Finally ordered some decals from the man and here it is :)

Think its finished now or at least for the time being as I have two others to do. Comments and advice appreciated and if anyone could explain who to date it from the serial no, that would be great :)

Looks nice :daumenhoch: personally I would match the seat and grips the same colour though :)

Looks good but a bit Haro-ish in them colours some ladder bars would help :daumenhoch:

Cheers. I was going to use green skyway bars and then I could match the seat and grips, but ended up using the rebel bars instead. The colours were inspired by a haro I saw on the bmxmuseum :daumenhoch:
