Rick has been cleaning and prepping all the nuts/bolts etc ready for plating, frame has been prepared  and painted in 2 pack gloss black.

Wheels and forks are rebuilt ready and the motor strip down has started.

I will be in work, building the new entrance porch on Friday and Saturday (30/31) with the phone on answer machine,

If you need anything then please ring and leave a message, I will ring you back  when I get chance.

Project sale starts this Saturday and runs till 23rd December.

Why not pop in for a look, have a brew and a biscuit/mince pie, and see if you fancy a challenge.

If you pick a bike to restore we will create a blog page for you ( if you wish)  to document your progress.

If you don't see anything that suits let me know what you are looking for and I will keep an eye out for you.

We will run the sale until Christmas or until I have made enough space to build a "restoration bay" 

Hope to see you soon, 

Tony.

Bike Project's Sale.

by Tony 22. November 2011 19:27

We have come to the decision that we are never going to have the time to finish all the bikes that I have stashed away over the years.

With this in mind we will be dragging out a few and selling them!

Why not pop in and see if you fancy a project.

I will take some pictures and post them over the next 2 weeks.

The newly painted tank and guards are fitted waiting for pedals and a few other bits to finish.

Honda SS50's progress

The first of our SS50's is finished (and sold) it is still at the shop if you want to see it.

 

The next one is well on the way, it's running now and the paintwork is nearly done.

The third SS is also been assembled at the same time, we are considering making a "trials" version for this one!

Brian has finished making a companion for Bwyan, his name is Cid!

Why not pop in and give him a stroke, he won't bite.
