coming along swimmingly my dear boy...

It'll be a lovely classic racer, I'd be tempted to restore it to its former glory and leave it at that.

athankayou 8)


think im going to go shiney, new build. dont think i could make it look right with the rat look thing. everything inside and suspension and braking parts looked good to be reused but underneath there was too much rust. i HATE rust.

will be fitting the front end monday. no rest for the racers!
