Mongoose Dacade Resto, build up

[AxlFoley]

Well the resto has started, this is what i have so far.
 one frame


one wheel, to be bleached soon, still looking for a rear !!

one set of pegs NOS

one rebuilt rear reflector still looking for the front

more updates as and when they happen

Also i'm gonna build a bike for my woman, see the other thread, although that will be a build, not a full on resto

[geoffcrabble]

where did you find that!!!!!

Why do you want reflectors?

[AxlFoley]

I found it at the foot of my christmas tree when i was about 12 lol

I want it back to factory standard, so all reflectors must be fitted

Dude you got more parts than me , I've just got the frameset (with welded rear lugs ) and skyways so far. Good luck with the build

nice fram dude, did you get it chromed ?

I have read your thread on bleaching the wheels, i will be doing this as soon as i can get a big bucket, did you just use bleach or did you dilute it ?

I have also got a set of repro stickers, but i have misplaced them at the mo!!

Just good old fashioned elbow grease with the autosol got the frame tided up, by no means perfect and still work to do. Bleach, full strength thick stuff, no diluting.

Had the frame/skyways since Aug07.....so you could say its been a slow rebuild!!

never mind dude, as long as you get there in the end, if you want to sell your wheels then let me know!

my bleaching is due to start soon.
