1978 Team Jag
1978 Team Jag
Nickle 1978 Team Jag
I messed this one up by refinishing it instead of leaving the OG sand color paint...this was my transition to OG finish bikes. I will noit refinish another bike like that again unless there is no hope to save the finish at all.

Re: 1978 Team Jag
Nice, but how bad was the OG finish?
Any before pics?
I'm looking for the following frames, frame & forks or completes by BMX products:
MotoTrac (nickle or chrome), Racer-X or a Super-X (with the double gussets preferred).
Thanks

Re: 1978 Team Jag
I bought it and took it right to my friends house the same day. He did not take pics nor did I. It got nickle plated right away as that was what i was really looking for at the time. At this point it doesn't matter, what's done is done. Years ago now. The frame had some major paint wear and scratches on one side but looked nice on the other. The frame and a different fork were purchased from an ex member here who bought it off of another member here who has it posted in his bikes.

True what is done is done, but I have another '78 Jag frame that I'm looking to get painted and I was wondering on the OG color of yours is all.
This frame I have is black, but Im not sure on leaving it that color (when I get it re-done), It's in extremely sad shape
