1979 Norco

1979 NORCO

1979 Norco.  VIN # on bike is D9 1037585.  If someone has a breakdown on this VIN please let me know.

I pulled this bike out of a dumpster in about 1984 and put it in dads storage building.  I thought that the fish gill gussett was cool looking!

As I put this bike together, I realized that the geometery was crazy!  NOT the best rider but a unique bike to add to the growing collection.

Had the frame / forks / bars powdered in Red.

Great looking bike! I remember selling these BITD. I am pretty sure they were called Norco Duster.

Nicely done!! I have one of these frames but it is in need of some serious rust repair/tube replacement...
