Well most of you wil know this was my holy grail .

I'm over the moon I found one.

I've been saving parts over the years in case one came up and

here how it's looking so far .

I've decided to keep it original survivor chrome

frame , forks and robbo bars .

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

Keep the black seat or red

And I'm looking for hubs , tyres and pads .

Have a mooch .

Only phone pics camera is busted .

Carl

Red seat

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.
