Can't officially tick it off until it arrives but i'm so chuffed to add it to the Kona sanctuary, a 97 Explosif

I always thought it was a mustard colour looking at it in the catalogue but it's actually gold in real life.
Yeah the previous owner had the seatstays rewelded after the welds cracked.
With this going to be another one of one build and getting powder coated in a new colour like i've done with some of my other Konas recently this makes it a perfect project frame. So i wanted to go round the frame with a wire wheel on the drill and reveal any dents or rust areas to see what i'm working with.
I'll start a build thread on it at some point after i've finished the 93 Kilauea i'm doing.

so more like the goldish tone of the 96 Kula ?

anyway looking forward to paint and build thread
