CHAPTER
ONE - 6
I was just
going to rebuild it and leave the paintwork as it is, but I have
decided to strip it down again and start from scratch. The
motorcycle could have stood for years with no attention, so if I
just rebuilt it I could get problems later on. I reduced my
Dnepr to kit form and rebuilt it and I must say it has been
worth it. The M66 is almost original so I am going to try and
keep it that way with the exception of the white side panels.
The frame has been painted black, so I will re-spray it the
same blue as the rest, with a gold coach line around it.
Hopefully this will look good and in keeping with the original.
The pots have also been painted black; hopefully I will be able
to find some paint to match the rest of the bike without making
it look odd.
Ongoing
progress of the restoration will be shown over the coming
months, on the website; I think this will be in the format of
pictures, tracking each section upon completion. |
