Hi trueblue,

Welcome to the Club firstly!

There is a guy called Tony ("funkymoped" on here) who is based in Hersden near you who restores fizzys and other seventies Japanese classic bikes. He will be able to help you with anything fizzy and carries a fair bit of stock of spares etc.. He is also probably the best classic bike painter around with over 300 fizzy tinware sets to his name to date.

If you need any advice along the way with your resto just let me know?

Cheers
