1984 GJS Freestyler

Possibly the only lavendar GJS Freestyler ever to come from the factory

I purchased a chrome f&f set around 83-84, when I recieved the set the chrome was peeling. I called GJS and they said they would gladly re-chrome it or I can have one in any color I wanted. I chose lavendar, and I believe I may have the only one ever made in this color by GJS. lavendar was not one of their "stock" colors and I believe they did this for me for customer satisfaction. I sold the bike around 1988 when I got my first car, and I bought it back from the cousin of the person I sold it to a few months ago. The only items that were changed were the wheels,brakes,chain seat and seat post. Im going to do a complete resto on everything!!
 
Black and white picture from 10th grade Photo class. I will be done with the resto soon.
 
 
THIS IS A PICTURE OF A PICTURE AND YOU CAN JUST SEE THE BOTTOME EDGE OF A POSTER I HAD HANGING IN MY ROOM. THE POSTER WAS OF THE 1984 SUZUKI QUADRACER, WHICH KIND OF DATES THE PICTURE.

Re: 1984 GJS Freestyler

i can't believe you repainted that bike....the original paint looked great.   

also, its a 84...they didn't make these in 83



regardless, that thing is sick....i love GJS's!!!

Always looking for anything from... 
Star Products BMX, White Bear, Hustler, GJS, Panda, Rebel Racing, Blazer or BXC.

I agree, I would think an original, one of a kind bike with the original finish would be more appealing. It certainly is to me. It will never be original again....... Not that it really matters what I think.

I wish more people would leave these gems in original condition.

Awesome bike either way!

1983 GJS Freestyler

Possibly the only lavendar GJS Freestyler ever to come from the factory

I hate to rain on your parade but I had a Lavender and pink GJS freestyler.  My bike started off pink around the headset and faded to lavender at about the brace of the down tube.  So about the back 75% of the frame was the same lavender as your bike.  Mine also had the square lower rear tubes.   I would still have my bike if my dad hadn't given it away at a shriners garage sale for underprivileged kids without my knowledge.   Some REALLY lucky kid ended up with it!

I Dig it... Another great story...  Right On!

I don't know what I'd do if anything ever happened to my girlfriend. But first, I'd
probably burn my clothes....
