I'm working on a haro Master and a T/A. Both should be ready within the week, hopefully.

I have a GT Pro Performer also in the works but that one won't be ready for ages yet as it's a long term project.

The same builds as I have for a while now, one special early 1979/80 build (not an ACE  >:( ), an 85 Haro Master and my 96 Hoffman Flash  :daumenhoch:.  Few bits need to be polished/painted on the Haro and the Flash before they are finished any my special build needs a lot doing paint wise but I'm waiting for SuperbikeDan to get the right colour red in so I'm not in a rush for that one  :daumenhoch:

Tempted to out the ELF and build a Hutch or Torker, something from around 82/83 but I missed that Hutch from the Fruister that you picked up Tony and bargains like that do not come up often  :(.

I'm just about completing 3 builds of mine. I'm still not sure what my next bmx build will be yet. Something will come up me thinks.
My other project to complete at the mo has a wheel on each corner, engine under the hood and needs my time, cash and attention right now  :P   G.

Post by: Jt on May 29, 2007, 12:07 PM
scouring the world for the finsihing parts needed for the following.

2 x lazerlites -  one stock-one definately not.
1 x white nos quad freestyler - should be the nuts when i get round to it.
1 x JMC standard short - right at the start with this one...will be a while but will be correct and the bollocks

already complete but still undergoing upgrades...83 robinson expert...more detailing required which is ongoing, and my streetbeat, which i stripped for parts to donate to quad and now rebuilt with different bits,  its taken on a whole new look, which i quite like!

Post by: Nosnod on May 29, 2007, 12:51 PM
81 GT Pro and an 81 Mongoose Motomag

Title: Re: WHAT BUILDS ARE YOU WORKING ON?
Post by: Zippy on May 29, 2007, 12:57 PM
Nothing too exciting for me.

A Custom painted Aero Pro Burner which I'm just waiting for the wheels to be laced and then it's done.
A Team Aero Pro which is a rider at the moment but will be restored fully after the race season has finished.
A Kuwahara Minithat will be done when it's done.

That's it then I'm then going to retire from builds as I've got the bike I've always wanted.
Title: Re: WHAT BUILDS ARE YOU WORKING ON?
Post by: brass monkey! on May 29, 2007, 01:01 PM

PK Ripper Looptail - Baby Blue (Just crank needed)
PK Ripper Looptail - Ball Burnished (Stem & crank needed)
Torker 280X - NOS Chrome (Tyres & Bars to finish)

I need a Cruiser next, Hutch, Floval, Gorilla - c'mon, sell me one  ;D

Post by: munners on May 29, 2007, 08:50 PM
Ive got a PK Ripper Loopy and a Haro Gen 1 to be getting on with.  :smitten:

 Ive also got a lully 87 Gt performer thats been painted but I wont build this for me its for my eldest boy. The paint work on it is stunning though so he may have to wait the poor sod. I really want a pre 85 performer and to do it Fiola yellow. Now we are talking. ;)   
Title: Re: WHAT BUILDS ARE YOU WORKING ON?
Post by: stidds on May 29, 2007, 09:56 PM
No more builds for me before MK, I will be taking my Retro SE Quadangle, 1979 Roger DeCoster, Pro Class (unless it is sold), Pro-Lite CC (unless it is sold) and the missus is taking her Retro Redline.

Although I may have a new build by then  ;)
