I was gonna go basic .. Then i thought what the hell it was mental at birth. I never saw the original colour as it came to be in the metallic purple... There was a tiny bit available around the BB..
This was the result..
Fastline Powder Coaters in Preston had an idea of a sliver base (i believe) with an acid candy yellow on top. It got a wonderfull silver/gold shimmer to it.

I like that a lot! Good choice and heard good things about fastline in Preston
Seems very similar to the original colour. http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=194547

Little bit more progress. Cleaned up the hanger. I didnt want to powder it on so decided to just leave it rubbed down.
faced off the BB as I didn't want any chance of cracking the new powder.
Better shot of the actual colour as it always looks flat in the wide shots
Its the saddle i currently have so will see how it looks in the end. XT always starts making things look serious
Headset fitting at a mates this weekend so thats all for now.
