Wow they look great, when I started to get back into old skool, I wanted everything Nos.

Now Im really starting to enjoy restoring something that would have gone into the bin a few years ago.

Thats great work

Nice work

Is that from using a standard benchgrinder / polisher?

Although a shame you couldn't get rid of the glare on them

i just use a 1400 rpm motor with various mops and 3 types of polish,not keen on faster motors because if youre not careful you can polish out details like names numbers etc

That's an amazing transformation. Good job mate. Mind you, it wasn't really a turd to begin with, just in need of some serious TLC.
