Restoration of Sandcast Frame 5369/ Engine E5479
martin_uk:
The frame has had a poor weld repair to right hand rear hanger area.
Could be fixed, but I dont have V5 for it, so could be used for parts unless someone fancies taking on a project?

Martin, if you definitely want to shift the frame I'd be interested, if so can you tell me what you want for it?
Thanks, nigel.

To shift paint on large metal parts just use a stiff circular wire brush in an angle grinder!......it takes some time and effort, its very noisy and the vibration is a pain (literally) but it certainly shifts paint rapidly. Obviously you need safety goggles, respiratory facemask, ear defenders and thick gloves, and plenty of fag/ coffee breaks but just watch that paint shift. I have beasted a tank, frame, swinging arm, mudguards etc with an angle grinder and it beats paint stripper every time.....just need to do it outside and watch where the sparks are flying. I suppose blasting is just as good but an angle grinder costs nowt!
