Sean hit the nail on the head Ash, a vintage bike for one of the best know vintage collectors i know.
Seriously awsome Ash, you must be like a dog with two dicks. :4_17_5: :4_17_5:
-
Seriously :idiot2:
It needs a repaint, Halfords do some really nice colours these days :daumenhoch:
You pretend the chain has brass links but really its just rusty get some of the 3 in 1 stuff off the market :daumenhoch:
Wheels need oven pride, some clown painted them 7b's yellow
I'd get some Ajax on them pads and give em a good scrub with a nail brush
I think if you spent around £50-£60 in Halfords on parts/paint you could end up with something really nice :angel:
