« on: November 27, 2011, 01:47 PM »
 I couldnt resist this little Torker MX when  paul ( antiquebmx ) put it up for sale ....  Joff made me sell him the last Torker i had . ;D 

Just threw some bits i had lying around and it's come out quite well ..  i think it looks propa old school

Thanks to Rollin ( Gaz ) for popping round Friday with some BB cups  :-[
