‘89 Orange Clockwork resto begins

[A_Guy_Called_Graham]

So I’ve finally got around to restoring my ‘89 clockwork I've had from new around it’s original frame.

M plan is go go full DX as much as possible with a few tasteful period upgrades due to some parts being seemingly unobtainable right now.

Attached are pictures of how it looked up until a week ago, and how it looked when I dropped it off for powder work.

Ps I have just under a month to complete this build and although I have most there are still some outstanding so if anyone has a set of nos DX pedals, nos DX seat quick release and nos Corvo saddle let me know

Wasn’t too sure on the exact colour so went out and bought another Clocky just to use as a colour sample.

Seems about right...

Looking forward to the build when you find the color any chance you can stick it in my paint match thread mate cheers

Sure, as soon as it’s back and I can confirm an exact match and level of satin finish I’ll post it. For reference it was originally Orange but way back in the 90’s I had it changed to black and updated with newer decals
