Title: The time has come
Post by: In2bmx on August 25, 2013, 11:12 AM
To strip the Redline squareback,back to it's original nickel finish and change some parts .  :daumenhoch:
I've been thinking about it for a while now. What do you think ?  "help"

Might be the last time it's ever seen like this .

I do like it in white but think it looks a bit cheap  :-\ , it was nickel when I bought so it's now time to give it back its more original look ..  :daumenhoch:
