My dad has had this in the loft for as long as I can remember. I was dark green and a bit crusty. It has always been in bits. He has finally decided to restore it and get it back together. The frame went away to be stripped of all the old paint. He used body filler on any imperfections and primered it and sprayed himself. He looked up on the internet the original colour scheme. I think the model is a Tour of Britain. He got an original badge off eBay from Europe and there is another company looking at reproducing the stickers for him. The wheels he bought online and collected and modified a new bottom bracket from Halfords to fit.

That's pretty cool.

Why do I automatically think it's facing the wrong way though? - Seems like the front wheel should be facing right, weird.
