1982 Norco Turbo Spitfire

Don't see a lot of these around...

I know a lot of the parts are not period correct, but I got this far tonight and had to snap a few pics.
1982 Norco Turbo Spitfire frame, with fishgill gusset and looptail dropouts
Unknown fork
Cheap Diamond-back Trail Bars
No name stem. (solid as heck, though!)
AME grips, blue
Tektro Lever (new school, but it WORKS)
Odyssey Slic Kable, blue
Tektro sidepull brake, alloy, black
5 spoke new school mags, black
MX-8 tires, 2.125 fr/rr
Redline 1 piece crank
Axiom alloy pedals
No name spider and chainring, 44T duraluminum
Random junk chain, white master link
Dicta 16T freewheel

Adding some blue Redling chain tensioners, as they will help preserve the MINT dropouts, and do they usual job of straight, even and secure rear wheeling. Need a seat and post, and it's good till other parts come along.

The frame is mint! No scratches, dings or rust! I didn't even tighten the rear wheel nuts until I put some alloy chain tensioners on to save the dropouts.
