Title: AS PROMISED,DB SILVER STREAK PICTURES......
Post by: mclarenj on May 08, 2007, 10:20 PM
Finally picked this up at the weekend. Having a bit of a job at the moment trying to shift the rust spots(they really are only small but want to get this looking nice for the summer).

Tried a bit of Auto soul but can't really see a great deal of difference(maybe I need to use more elbow grease) ;D


The serial number is 3H3140 (then what looks like a baseball symbol). Is this a genuine SS ? Any advise,obeservations etc would be much appreciated(as always).

All the best.

It isn't a HL Turbo as the seat tube has too much of an angle, the HL seat tube was more upright.

It looks like a really nice SS to me.   That will be cool once built up.
