Pink SS Gordonson ladies build

Postby hondaboy » Sun Aug 07, 2011 7:42 pm

Picked up this frame today as a start for a SS project for the missus. Will update as it progresses :)

First thing's first, any recommendations for a sandblaster/powdercoater NOR in WA? 8)

Cheers

Hiya,

I used to own this frame and my mum was looking after it for me while I was away. Anyway she gave it away last yr at a garage sale at her place in fremantle and I always wondered what became of it. Did anyone end up fixing it up? if so do you have any pictures?

I bought it from a lady in Melville just under a year ago, I am fairly certain she was sourcing frames/bikes from around the place and reselling them as she had a number of other bikes/frames for sale on gumtree at the time.
I ended up selling it to an enthusiastic guy who drove up all the way from Waikiki. He said he was into restoring old bikes and selling them.
I've kept a lookout on gumtree since to see whether it has received any love and looking to go to a new home.

Sucks that your mum gave it away, did you also have restoration plans for it? Perfect frame for retro project :)
