K0 finally here.
« on: November 06, 2014, 05:29:16 PM »
Well after several weeks the caterpillar has arrived (or should it be maggot)
hope to transform it into the red butterfly. The restored bike is frame number 420 younger than mine
seems spooky that they were probably in the factory together.
 Lovely handlebars don't you think.
need lots of bits, i'll put a list up when i get it sorted.
