1963 Carlton Catalina

Full restore from a very tired looking frame, build up with period correct and NOS/SH parts... with a few tasteful 'modern' accessories.

Have the adjustments on my telly gone all retro too?

Your valves need upgrading!

Thought I'd remove the silly montage photo of my '84 Majestic and show what she looked like on e-bay before restoration.

Seems like a few similarly aged bikes this month so i'll nominate my Carrera Epic rescue bike...Love the colours that smack of the times...

 

[The History Man]

And in a proper size. Nice.

WOW! What a great selection once again.
The months not quite over yet so there's still time to get entered
Entries close tomorrow midnight (ish) and a poll will go up Friday PM.
Next month is theme month and while I have a couple of ideas, if anyone else has any please drop me a PM with suggestions as the comp is for everyone. The more varied themes the better

Thanks

Jamie
