I have a pair of these I would sell if anyone else is looking?

all these parts gone?

Recently i bought this, and it arrived today- no idea how it got to the UK i imagine it was for the American market, however i may have been import here from new- its 1969/70 after some research on the headbadge. still has its glittery yellow seat on it headbadge paint is beat to heck...

so you are the one who bought it! i was watching that but couldnt be bothered to come into town to pick it up.

17- 18 in september. not a patch on most of the young builders on here, but i'm up against it geographically.

is that a custom, or an off the shelf body? i really need one, but i can only really dream about it here in england. very very kool (yes with a 'k') much respect to you, or whoever built it

glad you got these english bikes, and managed to date them. i would say they are all about right, but that perhaps the quadrant equipped bike could be immeadiately post war, when we had the export drive on. anyway sweet finds

you've got to be doing well if you can create bikes like that on this side of the ocean. keep flying the flag, hello from darrzett (dorset for those who don't get the accent).

great work on the tank, glad to see more and more ratbikers from this side of the pond joining the ranks.

good to see you've finally seen sense wayne and joined the likes of me, wazza and paul. happy biking. still loving the rolly. i'll tell you what you need for that- some white mk1 chopper pedals without reflectors. :lol:

welcome, fellow uk member. brat rods as they appear to have been named seem to be the most popular basis for lowriders over here, and another has joined the ranks. i built one and it rode ok, but as with yours the rust got at it! loving the paint by the way. mine equipped with 36 hole coaster...

you lucky bugger! such a rarity in the uk, especially a skiptooth! i live in hope of finding something like that over here, but, like you think it is quite unlikely! there were some american military personell posted locally so you never know- why, the other day me and my dad found a pannier bag...

is there a parrot on here? isn't that pretty much what i said four days earlier? :roll:

they're pretty good. much better than modern shimano rubbish. they are old and english, and that therefore means that the built quality is good (in most cases). note how the chrome is still good as it is quality.

good haul. got youself a good back hub in the blue one! (not that i am biased or anything)
