Well most of you wil know this was my holy grail .  :smitten: I'm over the moon I found one.

I've been saving parts over the years in case one came up and  :smitten: here how it's looking so far .

I've decided to keep it original survivor chrome   :daumenhoch: frame , forks and robbo bars .  :smitten: :smitten:

It's still got some original decals on it I haven't got the heart to remove them.  :angel:

Keep the black seat or red  ???

And I'm looking for hubs , tyres and pads .  ::)  Have a mooch .

Only phone pics camera is busted .

Red seat :daumenhoch:

I've just taken delivery of 24" tyres from Porkchop over the pond. Took less than a week to arrive and they have Comp III tyres in red as well as black. 2.125's and 1.75's.
Good quality too.
