When your started this thread I was wondering what you would do better about it, because it looked ace already.
Now I know.  :bow: Hats off Ady!  :4_17_5: Great resto skills and a lot of attention to detail mate. I love this a lot. fistblump

Thanks Andy,
Was a labour of love..
When I did this build originally, it was a learning curve at first , using the original bits in need of a refurb.
It had the wrong spider off a 94 Gt and cranks and other little bits.
At the time it was my best effort to get the look of an Eddie rep and was 60% there.
As time past , more involvement and knowledge in this great hobby I decided finally do it correctly.
It took about well over a yr to try and get the correct parts , some , just wasn’t available to the correct colours hence the above thread. fistblump

Yeah, I get the idea. How nice that is when it works out so well at the end. Collecting the right bits can alomst take forever. I'm collecting the right bits since I became a member on here.
I'm assuming the upper front edge of the framestander has been cut on purpose then?  :daumenhoch:

Unfortunately the guy who had it originally build it up a over a decade ago for his boy.
The seat post was set to high damaging the top of the seat post.
I had to remove 2cm of it ( still got the original off cut off section)
All works fine.

The new Eddie Fiola reissue have this hight tube so doing a trend  :coolsmiley: :LolLolLolLol:
