Title: My First Build
Post by: andy.w on July 09, 2008, 11:30 PM

Just a couple of piccies of my first build.

1983 Supergoose (wrong stickers but they are very shiney).

I have a slight problem with the front brake, the blocks don't go near the rim they are to high and catch the tyre (Mx 901's) Help required.  What do you think?
