Awesome , never seen one of these before .

Thanks a lot guys! I wish it was my studio, luckily we have one at work. Here's a few more process pics.

I'd painted it black like Mad Max's car when I was a young fulla and it was in pretty poor shape. I'd also got dad to weld some pegs on the drop-outs and forks as well as a loop at the top of the seat stays for some sweet freestylin' action.
Now I am a geriatric I decided to take the frame back to something closer to original so I ground them off and stripped the frame back to metal before doing a rebuild.


Hacking off the pegs and foot loop. The forks were small enough to fit in the little sandblaster at work.


All bits pulled apart and frame stripped to bare metal. I degreased everything, polished all the bits I could and repacked all the bearings. I thoughtfully relocated all the old grease onto the taps in the bathroom.


Recovering the busted-ass seat to be more acceptable to my busted arse.


The frame through the ages. Mean as pro-level coathanger paint rack!


It's pretty much done now but I'd like to track down a matching front brake and a longer drainpipe seatpost, otherwise I'm really happy with it.

Hey thanks man! Nah, that's not me on tm. Weird to see another Pearce there with a Pantha, pretty tempted to bid on it.
