Summer Project 37 Hawthorne

-

MrAustralia

Finally riding a big boys bike
I purchased this bicycle (without the tank) from @szathmarig earlier this year. But (being in the southern hemisphere) I haven't done much to it over winter.

Now that its warming up, its time to get moving on it. I am going to try a OA bath on this one (I have never done that before) as I think the paint is actually a maroon colour rather than the brown it currently looks. I will put before and after photos in the OA thread (in the restoration section). Hopefully it'll come out well.

Always exciting starting the next project. Thanks CABE!!
