1979 Bassett Racing Star Cruiser 26 - BMXmuseum.com

When I first got the frame from a museum member it was loosely boxed with some sheets n' curtains tosssed in for padding, spray painted white and came with Murray forks with cracked dropouts. After stripping the paint I found dents, a crushed brake bridge, chewed up dropouts, a fluted seatpost broken off about 4" down inside the seat tube and an ovaled headtube. Johnny Severin at True Torch cleaned up the dropouts, headtube, dents and got the seatpost out. 

After I finished it, I was riding home from Huntington Beach and broke the seat tube from the BB bunnyhoppin' a curb. True Torch fixed it adding a solid slug to the bottom inch of seat tube. It rode great for many many miles of cruisin' after that! This frame and fork have since been sold.
