A Bigwig just ain't wrong (sold)
So finally took some time to finish this one. At first I tried a early version of a replica shell, but it was no good, once I had painted it I could see all the cracks. Then I used a TBG shell, and this is the first time I'm not satisfied with a shell from them. It was very fragile around the antenna area and when mounting the rollerbars they didn't fit that good. I used some repro decals, not top notch, but they will do.
If you liked those pictures, you should see these...
this will be a shelf Queen (now restored)

Thanks! Yeah was meant to, but I forgot. Fixed now

Nice work! I've recently come to admire these so much so that I just bought a re-re for the collection to build and run.

Thanks Jerseyrc. I got the rerelease nib, that's why I can let this one go. I got a vintage runner, and it's so much fun to drive... Enjoy, once you get yours built and running.
