Restored Little 83 GT Expert.

[Macmania]

As some of you know I love GT race bikes and wanted an Expert to go with my 3 GT Pro's. So when this came up a few weeks ago I jumped at the chance. The chrome was pretty much shot but it was an honest frameset with un-drilled forks so I thought definitely one for the collection. I originally thought that I would have it powdered and then put it up on a display shelf, but I just couldn't stop myself from building it up. Big thanks to Dan for the powder, Del for the decals and Steve for the pads. Hope you like it

[Haro82]

That is really nice. 



I was going to build up an expert as a replica of my bike from BITD and bought one of someone cos they said it was an expert, only when it arrived it was a pro    So my replica is not really a replica    At least I can ride it though.

Sweet little GT build Nathan    love the gold Ukai's against the black   

The plate is a later UNI Turbo, the earlier ones that Radman sells would be better suited/period correct
