    1985 ATC 70 Project "No Dough" Complete Update 2/10!

    Picked this beauty up yesterday for roughly the cost of a pull starter.

    Going to just clean up what is here and try to spend as little as possible, have a 70 regatta coming up in PHX in early June.

    Started by polishing some of the original paint on the frame and it looks great.

    has the fender been moved up the fork? looks like it barely clears the motor from the pics.

    74 HONDA ATC 70
    85 HONDA 125M (undergoing surgery)
    85 YAMAHA YT60 red w/yellow trim (sold, still in the family)

    Excellent!!

    Spent the day stripping the rims by hand and painting with a base black and topcoat silver. I was trying to get a quality silver and the black undercoat hooked it up.....

    This being a budget build, to this point not counting the price of the 70 I spent $13 for paint supplies and all of the work has been my labor and elbow grease. I am quickly running out of stuff to do for "no dough"
