    Finally after four months Su's 67C is back on its wheels, still have a few little jobs to finish off and paint the tank.

    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.

    Really nice colour and application that man. Pinstripes really set it off nicely. Good job.....
