Ok while superbikedan has my DP ive found myself a nice little project.

Pictures of frame as bought.

So ive stripped it down and give it a little elbow grease and i think it has come up quite nice reckon this will make a nice survivor

Fella, that coming along beautifully

I've had a pacer 500 buried under a load of crap at work for over a year now...think i might dig it out and put together, got the blue decals for that one
