I'm after some help on a DB senior pro i'm restoring.

Does anyone have an orignal spec breakdown or point me in the right direction.

Thanks.

Cheers everyone, I appreciate the feedback. I'll probably have a few more questions later

I know cbrgil anyway, he's my neighbour ;). Actually it's his old DB that I'm restoring (properly this time)  :LolLolLolLol:

Started putting it together last night in the living room, while being carefully watched by the wife.

Ok, I think I'm about there. I've decided to put a full set of 890, rather than just the rear

All I need is the spider, chainring, chain and freewheel. Anyone know what makes and style these will be. I'm guessing the freewheel will be Suntour.

Yeah, I'd agree there, look at the angle of the rear dropouts. Big clue that.

I have a Viper and it's around '83. I'll compare the serial to it and come back to you.

Those decals do not look right for that era, moreso Formula One.

How much of that is original spec as I'm pretty sure the SP came with a one piece crank, though it looks lovely.
