What shade of green is that? Was it done with a spray gun or a rattle can? Looks good. I will be using a similar shade of green on my project. It will be all black tank and fenders, green frame, and everything else will be polished or chromed. It should turn out SICK. :mad:

The plastic is green, it needs to be wetsanded for sure, there is about a 1/4-1/2" hole drilled in the back for a flag mount, which I could throw in with it. Wheels I would like $20, plastic $10. I actually dont have a good brake lever so the light I would like $10 for so $40 so far for wheels, plastic and rear light. I also got a 38 tooth rear sprocket, with 22" tires I belive you could pull 80mph.

Was that tecate you got originally red? why not restore it back to red. You don't see very many of those around anymore.

plastics for the red ones are very very rare, and he prolly wants the green, i like the green over the red.
