77 Redline Non Gusset Proline #2
« on: October 06, 2017, 07:45 PM »
Never dreamed I would see a Non Gusset let alone 2. Number 2 came in last week and last weekend went to pick it up.
Had to take number 1 along to meet it lol.
It's been powdercoated badly at some point and wrong decals so will get stripped and painted white again.
These were only available in white at first.
Too have two of the first Pro sized frames ever made in BMX is still a shock.
Going to be a long build but should be fun.
Linn Kastan sent me the shipping details on it so stoked to have info. Serial # 06468 was shipped to West Coast Cycles on the 18th of October 1977.

Blimey Si, that's mint!  Quality info from Lynn Kastan too, who would have thought he would still have his production records from 40 years ago!

Hey Marty! Yeah he still has from #100 frame number. Some given to riders or some blank he said frames just walked out of the factory. Really cool info for frame numbers and where they went first. BMX product's were one of Redlines biggest buyers.
