1985 GT Pro Series restoration build

[stidds]

Some of you may remember the thread that I put up asking whether an old GT frame and forks that I bought should be polished as best I could or should it be powdercoated.

It looked like this..




So decided to polish it and see what happened, well after a lot of time it ended up looking like this..





Well, I have now finished the build and I am to say the least very happy with the way it turned out. 

I tried to use as many survivor and spare parts as I could and I think I only bought 4 items apart from the frame and forks.

It is pretty nice and reminds me of the bike I used to ride BITD.

Here it is in the sun for your viewing pleasure......
