Futuristic black is one of the rarae colours isnt it ?What have you done DINGO
Didn't Hutch use pink primer ?
Nice one, id be tempted to get it re done in pink or even FB as they both seem to be quite rare restored, i think you may be hard pushed to get the original quality of the chrome, i thought about it with mine but they were triple chromed so decided against it.Good luck anyway i love a nice trickstar
Hi I reckon that it was original too. I doubt that if someone painted it back in the day with hammerite they would have put on the decals, let alone the red and white Nora Cup sticker.Have you stripped the forks yet? Is there any other colour on the shaft / threads? Whatever you do now, it would be best to take out the bottom bracket, any colour in there? I'd go back with the original FB (if it really is), but have scene a couple of pictures on Vintage of a Green Trickstar from the mid 80's - and that looked very sweet.J.
do it pink like buff's just skip the 80's fasion
Oh well, even if they did what does it matter?You do it how you want it lloyd and we'll look foward to the finished result. i loves a trickstar me, it's about the only Hutch i might spend money on, if i was rich I've posted on vbmx see if those guys have any info...
I see the experts over on vbmx all seem to agree it was original shame but thats what its all about restoring isnt it, you get it chromed mate it will look the nuts
