Managed to source this extremely rare frame all the way from Australia - frame and forks are worth £400 alone - complete models go for over £1200

One thing I love about Aussie frames - the weather in Australia is real good for not making things rust too much - I'd have hated to see what this would look like after being in a sodden UK garden for the last 25 years ;)

This is going to be a full re-chrome, NOS/Mint parts/Pro Burner spec model using repro'd decals.

I've seen similar decals before (the font of Raleigh CRMO) has anyone else?
 
I've seen the thread already but thanks man

It's too far gone to use Oxalic though - the bottom bracket is too rusty..
 
Hi there,

the frame looks like it`s made in Japan from the factory Koizumi. They jused the have those rear dropouts, just like the australien TBC Cobra bikes, the early Diamond Backs or german Centurions....good, quality bikes. Did`nt know, even Raleigh let the the frames be manufactured by Koizuni till now... Have a look - here might be a kind of baseball-symbol somewhere at he frame near the SN....

Nice bike!
 
Pro Burner - properly some made for the OZ market and badged differently and diff decals for that market as to the UK market
