Ragged to Riches El Finito

We were gonna' show you a picture of the installation of the tank, but the picture quality was less than desireable (in other words they suck). So instead, we decided to go ahead and show you our finished cosmetically updated TY175 project.

So basically, what does it take for a good cosmetic refurb? First of all, give it a bath. Then grab a couple cans of high quality rattle-can paint and decide what you're going to shoot and then prep your parts properly and spray away.

Now that the paint looks so shiny you can't possibly put those old ragged fenders back on. So add the front and rear fender of your color choice with a new rear inner-fender and a front mud-guard stay.

Then toss your ripped and duct-tape repaired seat and rusty dented leaky cosmetically challenged fuel tank aside and replace it with our one piece shiny un-molested tank/seat unit. This tank comes as you see it with the decals, but it is finished in white gel-coat and can be easily painted in any scheme or color that you desire.

So go ahead, take your bike apart, choose a color and a graphics scheme and be creative. Turn that pigs ear into a silk purse.

Compare our before and after pictures above. How'd we do? Any questions or comments? Let 'er rip.
