Might just be a dodgy powder job, too thick & the welds will look all blobby

I wouldn't risk it tbh just in case someone's hiding a potential horror story

I thought same as griff when I first saw it as it's a funny place to be re welded on both sides of bb so it might just be too thick powder as griff said I wouldn't bother if it's overseas just wait for one to turn up in uk I'd say

Half way down page one on the museum now. 1980 looptail survivor f+f

He wants $750. You prob get it for $700 which iin english money is about £420ish.

Shipping frame and fork is $75 max to the UK.

If shipped right, you will get no fees on it  :daumenhoch:

You wont find an 80 looptail f+f in the UK for that money.
