Wow nice mixed collection yea have there, I actually quite like that silver mk2 with the banana seat, toying with the idea of doing the same thing to my matt black Kustom! it was an old super frame that cost me £7 and i wanted to turn it into a lowrider- never been done before when i started as far i could deduce, so i set about getting a bratz as a donor- bad news was ithe frame had to have its headtube shortened by about an inch, and i never got round to getting the down tubes reattached. it might get finished one day, i don't know. the trouble is the down tubes foul the springer when you try and turn, so its nearly unrideable (even if it was finished) |

Nice collection marcus... i love that moggie.. cheers gaz- unfortunately she is now semi dismantled- the old cellulouse that was sprayed on in the previous owners garden was getting a little too shabby for my liking- not terrible, but i wanted to catch it before the rust got in properly- it was already starting on the roof. luckily, since i only put it back together a couple of years back most of the bolts came out with relative ease (praise god for copper slip!) when i took the back wings off one of the bolts stuck in, so i had to hacksaw it off- as the captive in the wing had rusted off and was just spinning, so i have a repair panel ready for when the body is getting done. its going back into OEW but 2K this time, hopefully a bit harder. my friends used to say it looked like a police car from heartbeat, although i fail to see where they are coming from- they obviously havent seen a real panda car! think it might be the notek foglamps... jesus, i'm getting as bad as tony with these essays for replies |
