Title: Need help, genuine GT ?
Post by: davym2112 on December 06, 2012, 04:34 AM
I have been offered a GT performer frame and forks, only have the pics at the minute but can view at the weekend. Does any of you guys know if this looks genuine from the stampings/ serial etc as there a lot of snide ones in this part of the world. Thanks for the help  :daumenhoch:

Looks genuine to me, but Costa will confirm, he'll even know who welded it. :daumenhoch:

Going by the stamping, the forks look older than the frame.  The frame looks to be an early 90's but yeah....Costa is your boy  :daumenhoch:

reckon your right mate , looks like a 91ish Vertigo  :daumenhoch:

Mine had to go Rick to fund fresh builds  ::) , it was built as a bit of fun tbh ..... went down the fully colour coded 80's car theme route :D
