Hi all,

I got an 87 GT performer frame with some chrome mid school GT forks from Faze 3 on this site. It came to me with most of the hard work done. The frame was and is A1. The forks are what they are. I am looking out for a set of correct era forks for it.

Anyway my Dad refurbs Lambretta's and Vespa's. He wins awards for it and he said that i should send the frame to his mate who does his spraying. He said he is 'the best'. I went to see him and he showed me this colour, Ford Focus Orange with a metal flake. It looked great so i thought sod it and he went ahead and painted it. I am very fussy and i must say that the paint work is second to none. What do ya think?

?? In all fairness it looks better in the flesh.

I thought i would show off and show ya this too!!!! My PK ripper with unstamped landing gears. Lee (PKRADMAN) let this go. Thanks Lee, i love it!!

Looks great !!! From lookin' at it I wondered what an inverted version of it would look like... would make a nice pair I think !!

Great job !!!

That blue looks fantastic!!!!!!!!!! Ive got a TA frame and forks that i am getting bored of. I might get it painted that colour. Again with a gold or dark blue fleck in i reckon. With blue parts that would look the nuts. More bloody money........... I will keep you posted.

I never do put peoples names forward but if anyone wants this guys details (painter) then pm me. He said that he doesnt mind taking frames on. They are easy apparently! The amount of lacquer he puts on is sick!!! The frame literally slips outa your hands. Georgeous.

lee must be going nutty in his old age selling that

Lee sold it to me after some PROPER arm wrenching!

I wanted the candy red one he sold recently. I pm'ed him and he offered it to me reluctantly. He nearly changed his mind as he told me that he would never get a better condition one and nor would i unless i got a NOS one.

I soon realised that and upped the ante. The rest is history. He's a top bloke and has been a real help with advise. He sold it to me under one condtion however. That i never paint it! After meeting this sprayer i am tempted! Naaaaa, never, its too nice to do that and it dosent need to be painted as it has nothing to hide! As big Daddy Kane said..........Its RAW!!!!!

Sorry, im going off on one.

Mmmmmmmm Very nice

munners · « **Reply #20 on:** May 12, 2007, 07:05 PM »

Ah mate,

Dont do that to me!

I studied every PK on here and put those on myself. Please dont tell me that? How should they be?? They are murder to put on too.

snav69 · « **Reply #21 on:** May 12, 2007, 07:07 PM »

On the non drive side , the landing should be at the bottom mate

jT Racing · « **Reply #22 on:** May 12, 2007, 07:10 PM »

that's shit. they are a sod to get on but easily available and not expensive so you should be ok.

munners · « **Reply #23 on:** May 12, 2007, 07:11 PM »

I changed the decals from black to blue on the forks and copied them the same so they must have been incorrect anyway. I am making that FOOKING Baiggio a rich man!
