    1935 Sun Wasp

    I have previously posted finding this 1937 Sun Wasp, viewtopic.php?f=23&t=319153. A lot of progress has been made since then, soaking in WD40 etc and a full dismantle revealed that the bike was in a very poor state. I bit the bullet and started a full rebuild. The frame was totally stripped...
