Title: streetbeat build off?
Post by: weston on February 21, 2006, 08:00 PM: what are we doing then about the streetbeat build off on a budget? are we posting pics in the gallery or are we posting pics on a thread? what about judging? prizes? competitors get your thoughts in here....

Post by: Zippy on February 21, 2006, 08:12 PM: I kind of ripped the idea off the yank site but I wanted it to be a lot less informal and needless to say a lot less anal as well.
I think we should start a thread with all the pictures of everyones bikes and then open it up for everyone to vote.

Title: Re: streetbeat build off?
Post by: gmac on February 22, 2006, 06:27 PM: I started building my Beat up yesterday. It's pretty unique, but I can't decide on decals. Wasn't there somebody making them up in different colours/styles ?

When's the end date ? Cos I've got some parts I need re-furbing, and every supplier of the 900mm blast cabinets have sold out till mid March. I wanna do the stuff myself, rather than just giving it to someone else to do.

Cheers

Guy :daumenhoch:

Post by: dordymush on February 22, 2006, 08:03 PM: i've forgot when the end date was myself.
