Sadly the Haro frame was gone that I was hoping to find. but I did find 2 sets of very good cond tuffs. I spent 10 mins on the black ones and they look like new. They were that good! I suppose they spent 10 - 12 years in a dark roof.

Freestyler/Prosight - they look like later 82-83 stickys to me.........

AndyDiamond

Aug 7 2005, 05:20 PM

Agree with Pete Porker.
Those decals are 1982.
They have MXIII in black on the right in the red line.

prosight

Aug 8 2005, 01:51 AM

Andy/Pete
the bike freestyer has a pic of is an MX11 not an MX111.
all so if you look in BMX pancake issue 1 on page 44 you will see that sticker set and that is 1981 and us OZ's and NZ's were a bit behind than the US when it came to new products...

prosight

Aug 8 2005, 01:51 AM

just my 2 cents

COASTY

Aug 8 2005, 04:43 AM

Hey guys just got back from Sydney. I got all the crap from dads shed and I found a few little surprises! Things I never knew I had. The goose in the last pic is the first goose into Australia. It's the one the quickies were copied from. Those are the original decals too!

I don't have them yet Chris. post up here is a bit slow. I only got home an hour ago, nothing here yet.

prosight

Aug 8 2005, 05:12 AM

well i hope you get them tomorrow

Pete Porker

Aug 8 2005, 06:23 AM

By crikey Prosight you're right ! But i reckon that frame pictured was just off the boat and the first issue of Pancake came out at the end of '81, so that model/stickers was probably the ones that were everywhere in '82. If you look at the next page of Pancake, that Redline there has the earlier '79-80 stickers on it. But then, I'm no Redline expert !
Glad you made it home safe Glenn, but i can't see your pics..........

COASTY

Aug 8 2005, 06:30 AM

Thanks Pete.
I moved them on photobucket and broke the links.
All fixed now.
