Marty C inspired me...
« on: March 12, 2017, 06:03 PM »
[ Attachment: You are not allowed to view attachments ] After seeing Marty's garage tidy up, I had a crack myself!
I've managed to sell and trade a lot of stuff recently , so needed a sort out . 
Since I got  back into this hobby , I've always wanted a Leary Turbo, as this was the last frame and fork set I raced back in '84 ( I think!) . In September last year , I was lucky enough to score a lovely complete '84 survivor❤️, I immediately fell in love and have managed to bag an '83 complete, along with an  '82 &'84 frame set! Amazing what turns up if you search hard enough and have good mates👊
I now have all the parts to build the other '84 , with the painful search for OG bars bearing fruit today ( thank f@ck lol) . I'll update the thread once it's built👍

Think I've asked this question before... what's with the smaller gussets ?
Nice collection btw Mark.  :daumenhoch:

The small gusset frames are both '84
The one with the loss of smoke is an '82, the other complete is an '83👍

I've just been informed , the Gusset was changed due to the large early one cracking ?
