Title: TEAM MURRAY BUILD.
Post by: SDF on February 01, 2020, 04:15 PM
Made a bit of progress. Purchased a few items in Jan.

•   Vintage lever covers.
•   New old stock Weco pedals.
•   Landar  seat clamp.
•   Copy red Tuff pads.
•   82 Diacompe  dog leg lever.

Yellow new old stock  Team Murray pad set  and late seventies/early 80's plate and  numbers are in transit. Leaning towards a gloss transparent Candy Apple Red on the frame  the forks will stay black, and the chain guard  is 100% original so that's staying as it is. No spend in Feb, so March will be my next bit of progress.

Thanks, I’ve been told  it’s   A 1980. A Team Murray was my first BMX, so I’m enjoying this little project.

Cheers, I built it similar to mine as a ten / eleven year old, so it not perfect. Dan did the paint, and I absolutely love it. kinda sacrilege to Put the dodgy 1980 prismatic stickers, but that is what I did in 81. Just wished I had Tuff ones on my Murray as a kid, mine  had ten ton red mags.
