Great looking build Adam.
Danny, read the comments for this article.
Lionel?
Looks like you have a fan of ECSR who wants the band at the AFL Grand Final. One way to get a good ticket I guess.

ecsr? lionel is an interesting choice. not too many up tempo songs that i can think of... all night long, dancing on the ceiling... um... i probably won't get to see the pre show again but i just purchased it so i am all set. can't wait.
Danny as in Kicks, not Dani as in bmxmom. Sorry for the confusion. Kicks is in a band called Eddy Current Supression Ring (ECSR) and one of the readers suggested them as a better choice than Lionel Richie.
sorry
Very Nice Job Adam!!!!
Welcome back Roy!
What you have there is a September '82 Silver Streak.
Are the bars stamped (on the front of the bars on the right side)? They look a lot like DB Pro bars.
edit: Just rechecked your pos - they are DB Pro Bars. There's $150 worth on their own any day of the week

My latest mode of transport. Mix between a normal and long board with slightly bigger wheels. Don't really like the look of the pointy nose longboards. I like my decks just like my women. Sorry Dani, as the only female popping in here I hope you aren't offended and I thought I'd get it in before someone else did.

I forgot to post this thing too, i just put together a old GT i had here, i found the numbers on that one too. The numbers on it are 2840073 anyone know GT'S
kurt...those DB bars, they have the cross knurling for the stem....i dug though my bars and found these, exactly the same, same welds, same size, better chrome, but where the stem goes has the 2 rows of straight knurling. Would these be DB maybe later year model? I know the cross hatched ones are from the og japan. No markings at all on these other bars.

Feb 1984 Roy.. and number 73 for that month.. what is another number near those..one by itself..? 4 or 2 ?
So Matt, the GT serials read: 2840073
2 = February
84 = 1984
0073 = production number for that month.
Is that correct?
2 = February
84 = 1984
0073 = production number for that month.
Is that correct?

That is correct. There is generally another number, by itself, stamped near the serial.
JR = Junior (Mini size), 2 = Expert and 4 = Pro
My 24 has the 4 stamping. I was told 24's were stamped with a model number as well, because for a short time, there was an Expert size cruiser produced around 82-83. That was stamped with the 2. The Expert size cruiser is a very rare frameset. I've exhanged emails with an ex factory rider who told me he recalls them, but I have never seen one.
GT also produced a 22. It was a one only, and was used by a couple of the US factory team (I think Mark Perez and Chris Torres? (Can't recall))
pretty cool Danni
OK..... it's grand final day....de ja vu?
Go Saints!
Oh, and is it daylight savings tonight (Queenslanders need not reply to this post)

Thanks again people, i had a look and it does have another number near the front of drop out plate...2...expert. so it's a 84 GT made in feb, and it's an expert. Sweet!!
Did i show you guys the early Patterson i found in roadside clean up?

All the steel DB bars I have seen have been stamped Roy (plus with the crosshatch knurling). Don't know about those ones you have mate.
Cool looking lock Dani. "The timeless pick-up line, “Hey lady, you make me wanna wrap my sausage round a pole!”
Man the footy is looking ugly. There'll be some big parties in housing suburbs all over the country tonight...
Beauty!! on the bottom bracket serial number is 00172 its pretty beat up. Someone has cut the seat clamp area off at the bottom of where the clamp would stop. The seat pole is stuck in there and they have put it in a vice in different spots and left vice squash marks in the tubes....it was thrown out on the footpath for curbside cleanup...a friend of a friend was riding past and saw a red anno bully stem in this frame and picked it up for the stem....he took it to my mates place where he removed the stem and said...hmmmm oldskool told me about a frame like this....so he rang me. He didn't know what it was, but soon as i walked in i saw it. This is the same as the last bike i raced pro on (2 seasons). The Redline (one race) i rode at Miami doesn't count (didn't race) cause gary ellis stayed in sydney and didn't come to the race....so we went swimming insted!! lol.
