Title: Harry Leary
Post by: Gashead on October 06, 2012, 04:29 PM: Built this up just before I went away, so some pics were seen on FB, however the sun was out today and boy does she look good !

All built out of survivor parts, the frame was repainted a while ago by Spaky (previous owner) and bits collected over the last 3 / 4 years to complete.

Thanks to Sawzal for sorting the seat :smitten:

Who you calling a Spaky, personal insult ban him (where's a Moderator when you need one). :police:

Nice bike though. :)

It wasn't actually me who had it painted but a member who used to frequent this place, it was his old build.
