This is a 1978 Takara frame that I powder coated in mirror white. I had a frame like this BITD when I first started racing. I did not have a set of MotoMags back then, but I all ways wanted some.

I actually did the decals myself. The originals were vinyl, and I just did a pencil rub and scanned them in. I touched them up a bit, and printed them out on clear labels. Looks ok on white.
