Kuwi Rescue !
« on: September 03, 2011, 11:50 AM »
Feck, Tech & Resto, not been in here for a while  :LolLolLolLol:


Anyway, needed to go up in the loft to get Mr Leary down and found one of the first bikes I ever bought................... Kuwie Nova, it was one of Kelly's, so anyone post 2004 won't know that name  :coolsmiley:


She never looked right with the daft Elina post etc, so gunna spend a few hours on her this afternoon  :daumenhoch:






















Stolen a few bits of it over the years, so she needs some Gashead Love  :smitten:
