hi i have been puting together this for the last 6 months,
inbetween builds, trying to find parts, you know the score.
well nearly finished,
so today as it is sunny and a couple of bits turned up,
fault i would show her off
just a coulpe of bits to track down,
hope you like, good or bad,
tell me like it should.
1979 redline mx2,
most parts are nos.

Looking sharp

Couple of things I'd change, drop the layback as it just doesn't look right and move the brake levers down a touch but other than that

That looks reeeeeally trick mate.. love it!!!

Only thing I would say is that if its a 1979 then you should use the earlier decals.. just being picky there though!!!
