Back In The Day

The little lady was having a clear out the other day (that's trying to get rid of my treasured possessions to make room for her shit!) and came across these pix of the first build of the A7 back in '79. Always was and still am, a Billy Bike man rather than Captain America's bling thing, reckon the influence shows here.


This shot is quite early on as the frame is still in Red Oxide and the motor looks untouched.
