Title: My new Floval Flyer restoration!
Post by: generallee on July 12, 2007, 08:48 PM

check it out - bought from the usa, very tatty - then had it powdered blue - wasnt a nice colour, so had it powdered again darker, then it bubbled! So, had it proffessionally stripped and blasted, then went for a very classic colour scheme - and im delighted with it - so - this is my 1998 floval Flyer frame and forks with new decals.
