Mid/late 90's Huffy, model unknown, interesting frame made me buy it, frame made from scaffold poles i swear but still lighter than my M80, currently has upgraded tektro brakes and chrome wellgo 1/2 pedals and a vader pink saddle, along with repro mushroom grips

this is how it arrived with me
(http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs015.snc4/34112_440942856941_668306941_5735834_5746210_n.jpg)(http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash2/hs015.ash2/34112_440942861941_668306941_5735835_2706270_n.jpg)(http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs015.snc4/34112_440942866941_668306941_5735836_4122034_n.jpg)

2003 M80 Cory 'Nasty' Nastazio Signature Edition Pro

My dirt track rider, takes a good beating and gets back up and asks for more

cromo frame, tektro brakes, blank saddle, stolen bar ends, snafu pedals

how it arrived with me
(http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs047.snc3/13460_434027081941_668306941_5555232_5646232_n.jpg)(http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs067.snc3/13460_434027106941_668306941_5555234_4810894_n.jpg)(http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs067.snc3/13460_434027126941_668306941_5555236_4881099_n.jpg)(http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs047.snc3/13460_434027196941_668306941_5555244_1103925_n.jpg)

and how it stands today, a little grubby i know

(http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs209.snc4/38777_447392481941_668306941_5887433_222513_n.jpg)(http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash2/hs109.ash2/38777_447392486941_668306941_5887434_3373973_n.jpg)

And my Raleigh Wildcat

I wanted a burner, but got a wildcat instead!! Some mock the little wildcat, but with its flexy mags and odd top tube angle, i think it has potential

this is how i bought it [i'd already stripped the plastic from it and forgot to take pics] this is how it looked (http://a321.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/30/l_9ecf4ab487fde0b5eb2a0fc54e61bcb0.jpg). Lord knows what the previous owner was thinking with at Karin seatpost and selle royat seat! although it is damn comft

First mods

White wall tyres, white dia comp copy levers and white cables. Also found in my parts box an old polygon brake set in black and a generic one in black too, so they went on to replace the chrome ones. Changed the grips to my original 1985 ones from my huffy as i had to cut the old ones off to get the brake lever off. and added a set of dice valve caps. and cut most of the bracket off the back

waiting on my SR stem and bars from a Raleigh Styler, white chain and pedals

update time:

Took delivery of a box of goodies this afternoon so went straight to a trial fit. Wow, because of the angle of the top tube the bars look massive. . . . and i love it. It's such a comfy position to ride in, and loving the twin top bars, waited 24years for those! Also in the box was a stem, initially i was going to spray it black, but it was in such nice condition i've started to polish it up, [my first ever attempt] I sprayed it black first then preceded to rub down removing the black in the pitting, leaving the sr black!! I got down to 1200 grit before it got to dark to play out side any more!!! cap heads to do tomorrow and a lot of nitro mors on those bars!!

enjoy the pics

Thank you, I couldn't see the old girl go to waste, I saw way too much potential, still a way to go with her: paint, new rear cable, grips, spider and chain ring and finally wheels

Picked up a bmx i won on ebay a few weeks ago, the chap kindly held it for me til now! It's a specialized fatboy vegas, I only bought it for the wheels, as i've never really liked the bernardi mags, and they have a slight wobble. and a few of the other bits are going on my other rider and some bits are going on a mates bike.

So i know have a set of X rims C303 by Alex to go on the project, not top spec or race strong but light! and not nos or old skool but laced to some nice specialized hubs, they are true and spin like a dream, cleaned them up quickly [spokes need more work]

Butchered the specialzed this morning!!! Got the wheels on and changed the chain wheel [to get a more grown up feel to pedaling, used to top out at very low speeds]

Scored on the grips from fleebay, bought a £3 set of mushroom repro's and got a set of diamondback ones with black bar ends worth over double, oh happy mistakes by the packing department!!

also fitted a brand new rear brake cable

few more pics to the already pic heavy thread!

Jaymz what grips are them...they look fookin mental  :D
Never seen grips like that ever  :coolsmiley:
 :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:
Did you get em from outer space  :shocked: :shocked:
If you want a suntour 45t Chainring and a Mirage powerdisc that would look cool on it powdered LMK  (free) :daumenhoch:

small update, after sweetbeats very kindly gave me a mirage powerdisc and suntour 45t chainwheel, I picked up some nos odyssey bolts on the cheap and voila

I'm undecided how to colour code it yet, so it's just had a polish and thats about it

Colour Combo I would do the suntour ring black and the powerdisc white  :coolsmiley:

the 85 huffy got a treat today, poor thing spends a lot of time in the back of the shed, being a fair weather bike, anyway thought for fun i would dress it up a little!! With a ebay bargain race plate, not that it's going to be in any races :lol:

loving the HUFFY, with the gold pedals .... sweet thing   :smitten:

here. I tried this :( To this I think I prefer the plain look --- but sweeets is probably right about the white disc/blk wheel  8).

hmmm, its not an eye sore like that, and it would be a shame to spray the chain ring as the suntour will very easily fill with paint, could be worth a go i reckon, can turn it around with nitro mors if i dont like it anyway
