Wow, that looks amazing.

I have to be honest Liam, I have found your thread here to be inspirational. Not that I am going to strip my bike down to the bare frame and polish it, but after reading this I so wanted to clean something that I did the washing up!

Nice one mate, so next project, get yourself a nice old muscle bike and polish that in to Streetfighting goodness, although I reckon you will have your work cut out keeping this baby in such amazing condition.

Stunning job well done it looks and sounds fantastic can't wait for your next project whatever that may be. Get it in the mags I say I'm sure fast bikes would publish a shot maybe even in cracking one off! Well done.
