old rough dirtbike make over.
« on: August 22, 2013, 04:04 PM »
i bought this as just the frame a good bit back as i felt sorry for it as it had been on ebay about 4 times before i ended up with it.
plan was to leave it as it came and stick it on the wall but her in doors was having none of it when she saw it  "nono".
so in the loft it sat till i was bored one day and got the dremmel out and had a mess  >:D.
my god had this frame had a hard life. both chain stays cracked , what looked like the head tube cracked and welded by stevie wonder and a gusset put in place , rear lugs welded one and dents all over.
anyway got going on it and a kitchen spray job and am pleased how the old girl came out. its riding days are well over so a nice easy life on the wall is in its future.
heres a few pics of before and after  :).



















so thats one more saved from the tip  :daumenhoch:
