The girlfriend edition Pink/Dover White NQ50
Posted: Thu Aug 27, 2015 5:12 pm
Hello all,
I have been using the forum for a bit now for some advice, and decided to make a contribution of my own.
Originally bought a 1970 C70M and restored it for my girlfriend, but she was too nervous about the semi auto. So I found her a killer deal on a 1985 Honda Spree for $240 fully running all lights and accessories work great!
Here's the Spree the day we got it:
Tore the bike down to clean the frame/engine and get the pieces prepped for paint. The decals were a huge PITA to remove, but with time anything is possible.
Began the process of painting each individual piece, once the third coat of Dover White dried I taped off and painted areas with Krylon Pink Slipper, then three coats of clear:
And the final product, still have to apply the "Spree" decals and do the wheels. Overall it turned out excellent!
