GHP Trix - I'll be posting a build thread in the 'Old School Freestyle (frame stands and kickturns galore!)' section soon

When I was born, the world was a far simpler place.
It was all just cops and robbers.
And BMX.

I like the look of that Haro Patric! :daumenhoch:

I have this French beauty on the go (and hope to get it completed this weekend):-



Here's the build link:- http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,187252.0.html

Then this is likely to be my next build:-



& I'm slowly collecting parts for this:-



& this:-



All of which should keep me busy for a while!!! ;D

I still have three or four in very slow progress:

Jag Team 1982:



Procraft 1985:



Patterson Pro that needs a previous repair cleaned up and a rechrome but am struggling to find someone in or around Perth that could/would do the repair for me in a way that matched the existing welding:



And then there is this, my NOS 85 Haro Master that I have so many parts for but can't seem to bring myself to put it together yet, maybe when my attic has been converted to a having a dust free room and good access I'll do it so this might be a next year build:



I do tend to take my time with my builds though but I am hoping to finish at least one before Xmas lol.

You could be right!  I know, that Master is almost too good to build   :-\

I will finish them someday though, I've nearly stopped buying parts for them all and the Araya Aero's I got from Si have been given a bit of a once over and I've been playing with giving them a machined look.  They've come up OK but need a little more work with a rougher grade wet and dry to finish them up properly.

GT pro for me.

Ratty old thing I picked up at MK this year.
One build a year, the only way to get it right. No rushing involved.
