Page 8 Jason Ratcliffe () on Monday, June 09, 2008 at 13:54:55 - model: Mk2 - hubdate: 75 7 - framenumber: NN 5064*** - wherenumber: seattube - colour: Orange - location: Australia NSW Wollongong - Description: Basket case but all there and probably looks worse than it is. Got some paint thinners and a cloth and started wiping away the layers of paint and was suprised to find the original paint AND stickers underneath. Turned out to be orange but I was hoping it was red, I've already got orange. - comments: To restore or not to restore that is the question. On the one hand wiping all that paint off will be time consuming but cheap and the full repaint and sticker set will be quick but expensive.
