The tank looks great Paul. Bert has done a nice job of it.
I am happy to say I now have the MC350 it came off now and couldn't be happier thanks! After some shit shifting in the workshop to make some room I went and collected it from Fergusons' depot at Penrith Wednesday morning and was very impressed. While I sat and had lunch I gave it a good eye-balling and for the money it was excellent value for such a rare old Maico.
On the way home I stopped by Casa del Firko to give the big fella a look and he too reckoned it was a bargain, and only two numbers off his old warhorse which is one cool old race bike that showed it's years of hard riding and a fair share of trick bits (something about bikes that one person has grown up with and added to as time and dollars allowed - it holds some good memories for him he told me - and how many other Maico's boast a Boyd and Stellings swingarm !!!).
I would like to put the alloy tank back on but something tells me it would not be cheap so enjoy it on one of your bikes mate and thanks again for giving me the chance to own a bit more Maico history.
If you can would you be able to post on some pics of the 350 pre tidy and post tidy up please. Can you post the other front guard up while I think of it.
Cheers
Dave Mac
