Hi all,


This is my entry for the bike GB


I will be putting my own stamp on this build with the paintwork, other wise the kit will be more or less box stock.


I hope you will enjoy my build although it will be a short build!

Ive have stripped of the chrome on the wheels as they were to false looking

Next ive given the tires a good sand round to give them a orn look but also they had a very broad seal line which had to be removed.

Wheel have been painted using chrome spray and tires now fitted with the end result
