    Bravo! The bike turned out great! :heart_eyes: Su must be well pleased. But you'll have to start a new project now or what are we to follow? It's like when you turn the last page of a novel you've loved reading and are so sad that it has reached its conclusion. But when that novel is part of a series, it's not so bad because you can start the next book. So.......what's the next in the series, @darkman?! ;):)

    Thanks Sandi, it took two years to find this project and it only happened because the initial project was so cheap and we had a lot of the parts already, a good few years ago you could buy a project and fully restore it with a small profit at the end but those days have gone and we do have eight bikes between us so this might be the last one.

    Noooooo! Never say never, @darkman! There will be another project bike out there that needs to be saved by you. :heart:

    Outstanding work, as always, and another stupendous product!

    That mint green is not quite deep enough to match my envy .....................

    Outstanding, @darkman! Both you and Su must be well pleased. It would be cool if we could see a photo of her on her "new" bike. I hope she loves riding it! And thanks for taking us along for the ride as you worked on this project. :):heart_eyes:
