Post by: RATTY on September 19, 2006, 03:08 PM: Yep, that redline is luvverlly, and some nice rides in that shed,
Title: Re: Completed Builds & Future Restores
Post by: snav69 on September 19, 2006, 04:04 PM: Cheers , The Redline in THE Pride and Joy. I also laugh at that chain guard but its how the bike is originally so i never took it off , The hutch has only covered about 200 metres , everyone that sees it says - What The Hell is THAT thing , so its kept in the dark so as not to scare people :'(
Thanks for your comments guys

Post by: snav69 on September 19, 2006, 11:14 PM: 7UP bike was the start of my old school collection , its made by scorpion (california) theres something about them on bmxmuseum , Byron Friday was a factory rider for them but i can't imagine him cruising round on "the 7up" :2funny: . Re - the fork name , thats just the name of the forks bud , i believe akisu made forks for Hutch for a while .
