Here's a late entry...

This is my ex-Team National Pro LONG in Candy Blue.
Frame: Serial number #883238 (August 1983-stamped) National Pro ‘LONG’ in candy blue. This frame was candy blue from the factory, and was purchased directly from ex-National Pro team rider Bill Stonebraker who has owned this factory ride from new.
Forks: Undrilled National Pro.
All details have been authenticated and confirmed in writing by Billy Stonebraker (present on the BMXMuseum; an exceptionally nice and friendly guy btw!) This is one of only 4 known genuine candy-blue finished National Pro frames, and is the only ‘Long’ example in this particular colour.
Bars: Rechromed and super-rare original unknurled 1st Gen (thin cross-bar) National Pro race bars. Repro Pro Neck decal placed in the same position as marked by the imprint of the original (Massive thanks to Norty40).
Wheels: NOS rib-sided Ambrosio 1 3/8 ‘skinnies. Radially laced front.
Hubs: Original blue and silver Crupi Gen I sealed bearing flip-flop hubs (taken off an ’81 Diamond Back Pro Mini).
Tyres: NOS Blue/skinwall 1 3/8” Tioga Comp III blue/green label.
Valve Caps: NOS white Jive Handles (slightly later 80’s(?) but how cool?!)
Chainring: Polished Pro Neck 44T chainring and powerdisk.
Chain: Silver Izumi.
Chain Tensioners: Polished ROE ‘Whale Tails’ (thanks ‘animal’).
Cranks: Profile Generation III ‘’A’’ in 177mm length; original chrome finish. Original decals.
BB: NOS Profile with Hop-Up kit.
Pedals: Hand-polished super-rare NOS Vector Ultimate PV-1 in plain unpainted factory raw finish (polished), with the original pair of unused end caps. Choice of 1/2inch and 9/16inch spindle sizes present.
Stem: OG and unmolested Blue Bulldog stamped Pro Neck.
Headset: Tange Seiki 300 with a NOS blue Tange locking nut and blue Haro flex-fighter.
Seat post: NOS National Pro layback seat post. Original Pro Neck decal.
Seat post clamp: Polished TUF NECK.
Seat: Original NOS March ’84 stamped blue Kashimax Aero.
Brakes: Hand-polished MX901.
Brakepads: Curved Scott Mathauser finned.
Lever: Polished left silver MX-121 Tech 3.
Brake Cable: NOS white mid-80’s dated Dia-Compe.
Padset: One of the best parts of the build… OG National Pro pad set sold to me by Bill Stonebraker – his original race set(!) Took me nearly 4 years after I bought the F&F from him to talk him into selling these.
Grips: Rare (only blue pair I’ve ever seen) survivor Akron BMX grips in blue/white. (Akron advertised their aftermarket items such as grips and seats in BMX Action from ’83 – ’84, so period correct).
