Update?... So much progress, huge debt of gratitude to Phil @ Italia Moto in Lincoln for his expertise and understanding. It's not finished but it's not that far off. Paint repairs in progress, and metalwork has come up really nicely.
Won't be too long, and I really can't wait. Hoping to get a ride in before the end of Autumn, fingers crossed.
I should say, that's repaired original paint... not a full repaint. All decals are original, including those added by Randy like the Mechanicca one
I could see the frame is still the original paint but thought the tank and fairing had been repainted not restored. Well done.
I want to keep it as original as I can. All replaced parts are being boxed up... not sure who keeps old bake lines etc but they're being hoarded. I'm pleased with the paint. Can't wait to get on it.
