Z1-R TC Stardust

#1 PostAuthor: Big Fluff » Wed Mar 12, 2025 11:27 am

Sorry, never followed my post up with pics of it finished.
Original but late TC1 I finished this last year after a full nut & bolt resto. Richie did the paint for me and my old mate Harry Kay got me all the chrome items done in double nickel plate.
1260, every engine and turbo mod ya can think of. Goes really well and rides lovely.

Thank you Graham, I've certainly used a lot in the build I learned from building them over the last 15 years or so... :wink:

Thank you all for your kind remarks.
I like the clutch spacer I made, this way I get to keep the standard look but with a 2-stage lock-up clutch to handle the power.
