76 Redline Squareback
« on: August 25, 2017, 06:11 PM »
2nd build last Friday and have been collecting parts since getting it.
When i bought this it had been stripped of nickel and previous owner spent 4 months polishing it.
After talking to the plater it was decided to go for polished nickel so 3 copper coats and 2 nickel were applied.
Colonade in Wembley. UK did a superb job.
Got the Motomags and the front was pitted and rear coaster casing cracked. Decided to fill pits and paint them candy red. New coaster and bearings.

Parts are.
Nickel Proline bars
Mathews stem ( will change for a Proline stem if one turns up)
OGK grips
Schwinn headset, BB, cranks and  chainring
HTI pedals NOS
D.I.D chain NOS
76 Elina saddle
Schwinn seat clamp
Motomag lls
Motocross tyres NOS

Still some parts to change but happy with it so far.
