That must be hell knowing you have to wait

It wont be too bad as all I can do is look at it at the moment, decals haven't arrived yet, headsets in the post, still need some other bits, but its a start 

[curtispro]

We had to go out tonight but I did get the chance for a quick look, the frame had been rusting fairly bad under the chrome according to Dan But as per usual he's worked his magic on it and brought it back to life, his work is just amazing   I only took a couple of pics before I tucked it away again, crappy iPhone pictures but here it is

I will have to get the marker pen on them, it will save firebird steve a job   and they come in handy to prevent my youngest one from drowning in the tub when I am Pi$$ed up on the lounger seat

Another nice GL   

made laugh getting a text update of arrival    Like bloody kids at Christmas ,, ace 


What other colurs did they do these in ,, as everyone chooses white , my Frirebird  was white in 85 
So there was

White

Chrome

Neon orange

Neon green

Neon pink

Ni Bronze


but what as from the Factory ,, I have seen black ,, but think that was a custom resto

[oldtired]

think you've got all the factory colours there Dubber , don't remember Orange though but i'm probablty wrong on that? have seen a couple done in yellow think there might be one on here, mates bitd had em in red,  look nice in red with white tuffs chrome bits, brush painted smoothrite , can't go wrong  ,  and  baby blue, ( gashead style ? ),one did black/white fade ET style,   best finnish by far has got to be WHSmith sticky dots though  

[punkdSICO]

btw, on the Pro, are the holes in the right side top tube to run a break cable?  If so, the opening at the back is not in a breat position.

I have two DP Freestylers but would love to one day get a Pro..

Yes they are cable routes, you have to do a pots mod type of thing on your caliper, it's  tricky though

Yeah, you could also get Ultra Yellow as a factory option colour    I did one a while ago.
