went to a car boot sale today and picked up this.

P5150110.jpg


i believe it is a raleigh chipper, minus bars, seat and chainguard, and should look like this:

funny it appears to have retained its original tyres?! saw it a few weeks back for £10, and passed it by. the bloke was there again today, had a price tag of £8, it was raining, so he said a fiver. i offered in four. it is painted whit with aerosol or house paint, but is still yellow underneath. the stickers make me lol. its got a 16" rear tyre (same as chopper front) and a fourteen front. i have ridden it about :lol: all 6ft4 of me!

i also dragged this out of a skip. it is rubbish, but it was free.

unfortunately the tyres are 18", so not really much good. the seat folds in half if you put even the lightest weight on it (rubbish metal). the only things i may use is the handlebars and the sissy, and odd bits.
