[QUOTE="peterg, post: 658, member: 446"] ...well Howdy Chaps, Figured since I'd never got around to registering for the VOC over the years the rarified atmosphere of this chat room was off limits. Anywho, as a text book case for "one is never satisfied" I'm seeking a very crusty Black Shadow to mechanically restore but leave in all its crusty patenaed glory to go along with .......my very RED Chinese Red Touring Rapide mentioned in various posts here. A pic of it forth with as well as a pic of a red touring shadow y'all have probably seen before as reference. Putting on my painting cap for a moment, I can say in the aftermath (in reference to the challenge not disasterous results, it's been totally rewarding) of this restoration that if you're faced with the daunting task of painting 60 plus pieces run-free one at a time might as well have them visually jump right out at you when finished and in red, one of these machines is lovely to behold in any light - absolutely setting off Vincent's mechanical complexity superbly. .....now to find it a crusty brother.
