Post by: Mikku on September 15, 2016, 01:57 PM: I like the look of that Haro Patric! :daumenhoch:

I have this French beauty on the go (and hope to get it completed this weekend):-

Here's the build link:- http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,187252.0.html

Then this is likely to be my next build:-

& I'm slowly collecting parts for this:-

All of which should keep me busy for a while!!! ;D

Post by: MartyC on September 17, 2016, 10:31 AM: I still have three or four in very slow progress:

Jag Team 1982:

Procraft 1985:

(http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g114/martycoughlin/ProCraft/IMG_2773.jpg)

Patterson Pro that needs a previous repair cleaned up and a rechrome but am struggling to find someone in or around Perth that could/would do the repair for me in a way that matched the existing welding:

(http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g114/martycoughlin/PattersonPro/c73ceca0.jpg)

And then there is this, my NOS 85 Haro Master that I have so many parts for but can't seem to bring myself to put it together yet, maybe when my attic has been converted to a having a dust free room and good access I'll do it so this might be a next year build:

(http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g114/martycoughlin/3E256D85-A704-4AEF-A2D8-BBCE8B811462.jpg)

I do tend to take my time with my builds though but I am hoping to finish at least one before Xmas lol.

You could be right! I know, that Master is almost too good to build :-\

I will finish them someday though, I've nearly stopped buying parts for them all and the Araya Aero's I got from Si have been given a bit of a once over and I've been playing with giving them a machined look. They've come up OK but need a little more work with a rougher grade wet and dry to finish them up properly.
