no expence spared on this build,was even thinking of going to poundstretcher for some new tools,but after reflection will stick with my raleigh burner toolkit.
mine will be the long lost hidden away strange cousin in comparison,but as long as it goes and stops when i want it to i,ll be happy and to be honest surprised
after being inspired by the black beastie and stu,s far to nice 2000,ive deceided on which way to go on the amber thingy,as shes gunna be a user, no new floor but tidy up the average job done already,not pretty but solid enough.
a few hours scrubbing later
and ive got to put this picture in as its the only one thing that ive nearly finished
He's not under there, he got a jig (cheat ) go on Gra thats the way,
ayup, you getting all that ****in shultz off
shhhh i dont think he noticed ,and as for that spray sh1te he put on, he can locate it up his whippets backside,its soft as soft stuff thats really soft on a hot day not good at all.funny thing is the rear chassis rails are painted amber,parts off floor pans are green primer with lighter yellow paint ,and under the petrol tank i found a sticker with the colour code for signal orange ,a case for miss marple i think.
first repair done,after finding all the carp,its time to start getting it fixed and back on the road.my first tick against the list
previous owner welded a plate over this!!!!!!!!!!!!!
cut back to good metal.dont ask about the holes,they were drilled for the gearbox mounts,no respect some people.
2.5mm plate welded inside chassis
1.2mm plate over the top and part cleaned up,tidy floor repair later.as said before for now just going to get her up and running after paint it shouldnt look to bad.
and a sad farewell to my bike,thats going, to pay to get this car back on the road oh well.
