Picked up this 17 inch on Gumtree this week. Planning to rebuild, but looks to be a tricky one due to rail fracture that has been welded up by the previous owner.


The motor stamp suggests it was built on 10th August, 1981. The green hammertone is a new type of colour - I am thinking it must have been re-sprayed at some point as it does not look like the Scott Bonnar colours that I am used to seeing?

I used a sanding attachment on the grinder to get some close up pictures of the rails. What is the best way to fix these up?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
