I did a deal with Doobie for this lovely old mk1


Came pretty much complete but does need a fair bit doing.
The wheels will need replacing or possibly rechroming, I have stripped these down just in case I cant get any decent ones. The bars were seized solid into the forks so I had to cut them out. The forks were bent anyway so no big deal.
The crank was also pretty seized but pedal arms came off allowing easr removal



I now have a shopping list of bits needed. I think I'll get it resprayed but not 100% on that yet
This is the worse bit



So its now stripped and in the queue for a rebuild!

Cool, You've managed to get hold of your favourite Grifter.

Yeah mate  

lovely lovely lovely!

Look at the amount of crap that came out of the bottom bracket!!!
Good luck with the resto, it'll look super-sweet.

you doing this back to standard ?

Oh yes, cant mess with a classic like this  

dont think it needs a respray just t cut

I need to get forks painted so I may as well get the whole thing done
