Title: MY T/A FINISHED.
Post by: dordymush on July 27, 2006, 05:30 PM: right this was my all time favourite bike back in the day.only took me 20 years to get one lol thanks tommy.
anyway here it is.started off like this.not to bad of condition.the chrome was shot though.seeing as i wanted a white one anyway it was perfect for the job. craig missfits once again worked his spray gun magic over this frame set and it came out mint.

Title: Re: MY T/A FINISHED.
Post by: adeshere on July 29, 2006, 10:56 PM: So how come 96 on the plate ?

were you after a 69 but but too excited and put it on backwards

or

Is it so when you put the bike upside down on the seat and handlebars so you can turn the pedals spinning the back wheel as fast as possible like BITD ... it still reads 96
Title: Re: MY T/A FINISHED.
Post by: Nana on July 30, 2006, 04:46 PM: Dave cant express how amazed i am with your build mate it is really impressive 8) The colours are spot on , and it must be the nicest white one i have seen yet :) Glad you turned it into a show bike big fellow ;)

Oh that first pic :-\ wish that car still looked like that ;D instead of this
