Heres a project i bought a couple of years ago!

It wasn't running due to some elcetrical fault but managed to get it going.

plastics where damaged and the key ignition was missing, along with a blown exuast and generally rusty/dirty.

but all in all, it was pretty good!

I have also fabricated 2 new fenders out of steel tube and alloy plate this is because one side had cracked off. here you can see the U-shaped parts sat on top.
