A couple of survivors
« on: April 09, 2006, 05:53 PM »
The Mity Goose is pretty much original, although they are not the correct wheels on it at the moment. I have the right ones, but the rear needs the coaster rebuilding. Gonna give it a good clean up, but not restore it.

The 1977 Motomag is fairly original too, apart from the tyres. I have another one which I'm gonna mint up, as it's got a few dings on the frame but this one is staying as it is, original decals and all. I have the chain & the other pedal for it, just haven't fitted them.

Need to find grips for both of em as well.











Cheers

Guy  :daumenhoch:

Either Mongoose or Winner's Circle preferably, but I could just use anything period I guess  :)

Cheers Kev, I'll look into those. The proper ones do come up on U.S ebay fairly often, and as I don't want NOS, they should be sensible money  :)

Excellent mate.... I've always loved the Motomag Gooses. And I'm loving that Mity Goose. I'd love to be the proud owner of that for sure....I'd spend a fortune restoring it.
