1982 Diamond Back Silver Streak

This is another one of the bikes that roamed the streets in my neighborhood BITD. I secretly always wanted one as a kid, but wouldn’t get one because I was a die hard "GT Man".

**SOLD**

While resting and recuperating after a couple of laps at The Feast in the Southeast, me and Raymond (radline08) were talking about some of our next projects. Someone said something about a DB and CLICK, the proverbial light bulb came on. About two weeks after the Feast, 2DR_sedan posted a DB F/F for sale. So I quickly jumped on it. Then I got a part here. And a part there. And viola. She's now finished. She's pretty much era and spec correct. I wouldn't mind getting a set of Dia-Compe 890's (which came stock) but the 901's are my favorite brakes from BITD.
