don't think that last piccie was a good idea, :-\,the boat in the background alludes to the spare bikes general appearance ,i'm thinking it was used as the anchor  ;D, :P

Looks to be a good starter DT3 project for someone. Much of the money stuff's done. It'd be a good buy for 1k.

Looked at that one considered it then thought it still needs a 21 inch front wheel and being put together who knows whats missing fork top half and internals dont seem to be there  spares on spare bike look farked etc has been passed in 2 times already if he lowers the reserve maybe worth it.

Depends on the budget and destination for the project could be a good start but the pass in price before was a little high for me and didnt included getting it to my place in one peice maybe not an issue for someone closer.        Nice bike ianyz good job, I will have to keep looking for more projects. Will have my new old one by tomorrow mid morning if courier is on time will post photos.

I did see that topic heading 'lazy 25K' Mark but I never read the actual thread nor did I ever assume it would relate to a DT-1. Teach me to take more notice ;)

Yeah Chris, who'd have thought somebody would have the gall to ask 25k for a humble DT1 ;) .
