Author Topic: Living In Electric Dreams ((( WINDSTYLER FINISHED)))) !!!!!!! (Read 7675 times)

Needless to say I have been looking forward to this day for a couple of months now as I've finally got together most of my parts for my 3rd 4th & 5th ever builds, the bank account has been hammered & the spare room taken up with parts but all in a worthy cause (at least that's what i tell the Girlfriend)......

Only by a stroke of luck today did I actually intercept the UPS courier carrying the 3 frame sets bars seat posts & a few other trinkets which were all on their way back from (Superbike Dan Purcell)!!!!

I was freezing & standing outside at the Garage having my tyre changed (about 3 miles from home) when I noticed a UPS van parked up, the driver was across the street making his delivery & I don't know why but i went over to him & asked him if by any chance he had a delivery for me

To my amazement it was only the right van with 2 boxes containing my Freestyle beauties: 86 Kuwahara Bravo KT, 87 Hutch Windstyler & 87 Gt Performer.

I've literally just got them back un-packed them & had to share these with you, they all are original colours to their respective years but they were all originally different colours to start off with.

The GT was Hot Pink (now White), the Kuwahara originally Green (now Neon Yellow) & the Windstyler was Blue (now Hot Neon Pink) & I'm super stoked with the results. I'll update with the builds as they progress but lets just say there will be a lot of white wall action in the days /weeks ahead

Hope you Like !

That colour sits lovely on the Kuwi

Would be very tempted to spatter paint it over the top with dark pink and french blue

Mine too although missing some line green & orange !
Now there's an idea (a terry towling pad set)

Hmmmm ok maybe not ;-)

Nice

Kuwie brings back a few memories. Got a couple of NOS decal sets, if interested. Only missing Bravo KT Script but I have artwork for them.

Only a real man can carry off pink ! Those that worry about it should question themselves

Hello mate, I'm sorted for decals , the bike came with a few different sets but I've gone with the originals from Del same as your old set. Cheers anyway buddy
