Loved those bikes. Slackwell had the later WR model. That was a fantastic bike.

that looks like a fairly savage paint stripper - everything I see is now environmetnally friendly and doesn't seem to work too well - what do you use?

it normally takes three coats of paint stripper and a lot of elbow grease ... but its very rewarding to finally have a surface to lay a good coat of paint on  :D

KWIK STRIP from wattle I used....i read the ingredients from both dearest and cheapest brands and work out the difference

mind you ;) the more mussel the better the finish........  :P  ::)  :o

cheers corey
