I would need another bike as i'm keeping the ones i have standard, when i eventually finish my mk2 grifter prismatic i need to do my mk1 tomahawk before i do anymore...  A J.P.S Grifter is pretty tempting though.

I remember  them  with  the jps stickers etc  on them

Those Decals wouldn't be too difficult to cut yourself from vinyl!

I did these on a Kuwwy Rep that I built for a raffle






I could write a "HOW TO" if there was enough interest, it's pretty easy to do!!

Seeing  what you  have done there Archie  gives  me  a  picture  in  my  head  how the  McLaren would  look  fading  from the  silver  , black and  red.

Thats very  nice  what you  have done  there.

Cheers mate .........It's really not difficult!. All you need is a printer, a sharp craft knife and some coloured vinyl which is available on the bay in ALL colours and more for less than £1 per sheet. The decals for that Rep cost me £3 and an afternoons work!

BTW, I can se that McLaren too!.........that'd look the Mutts nuts mate

DO IT...........DO IT...........You know you want to

Buzzin Hornets Grifter sounds well cool - I had similar plans for my Mini a few years back....never got round to doing it though.

Top idea - I look forward to seeing this.

Hey a Mclaren Grifter

That silver black fade paint ....would be the same as a Raliegh Winner racer

I found a winner  here  but  not  right  colhttp://www.flickr.com/photos/bikesruz/1600760077

or you could do what I do..... save / print this, draw in the mags of your choice and get ya colouring crayons out!
You'll get a much better idea of how it will look and it saves expensive mistakes

Obviously  it  would have  some  nice  grifter stickers with the  middle  bar and  2  below  are the silver of the  Mclaren

cool    would be nice to see this bike become a reality!!

We need to find someone who has the capabilities.
I would love to see this one come to life.

It's just a photo of my MK II with a "photocopy" filter applied to it then the background airbrushed out. I found these useful when I was messing around with colour schemes for my BMX's....... Saves an awful lot of paint!!!

GREAT STUFF! THANKS FOR THE INFO!  

cool


hey I'll have to start drawing again.
havent done much pictures for ages.
the art teacher at school had some junk in the classroom to draw.  Only a old racer and a tiny trike.....some one climbed on the desk and rode the trike about.
