Just about finished my rebuild of a '70 GP125. Engine is a Stage 4ish 225 Harry Barlow barrel, nothing much else of excitement. Front hub and forks is currently a borrowed unit whilst an original disc brake assembly is finished off. Paint from Wilkos, roller and rattle cans except for the wheels, hubs and engine tinware which is powdercoated. Before and after pics:

Looks tidy, I like a rattle can black paint job, my GP project will look similar :)

Yep, rescued another one. This was found lurking in a shed in Italy until a couple of years ago.

Cheers for the comments, creeping slowly forwards. Going to finish off with the borrowed front hub so I can get an MOT and finalise registration which will no doubt take longer than hoped.
