Anyone have an orange paint code for a 1970 Rupp? I found codes for the Blue and Red but not orange :confused:
Someone said it matches the Chevy engine orange but I'd be more comfortable with a code since that orange engine color in spray cans may vary from company to company (like...
I'm trying to restore a Tec HS40. Just wondering if I need to lay down a coat of primer on the engine and engine parts I'm painting before spraying it with the final coats of paint? I'm removing the old paint now and it doesn't look like the factory used any primer on it before painting. I can't...
The blackwidowmotorsport.net website lists a silver paint code for 1970 but it doesn't say it's for the engine or gas tank. Can I assume this color is for the engine and gas tank and that they are the same color? Anyone know if the code they list "Microfine Silver", "MB 516" is the right color...
I need an HS40 block (on valves or crank case cover needed). The model year on this one is 72, but I'm not sure what the differences were during that time. The paint is important, but it doesn't need to be in perfect condition by any stretch of the imagination.

HI,
I have a couple of new scoots I've posted about in the US Vintage section trying to figure out exactly what I have. One, a Rupp apparently from 1969, has three layers of paint. I think the layer closest to metal is candy green. I'd like a paint remover that took the paint off in layers...

Hi there,
I will be restoring my bike very soon, I've not decided what paint to order for it. If you had done the similar projects, please share your tips. I need tips as for preparation works and painting techniques.
Thanks
Just thought I'd post a few pics of my ongoing mini bike project.
Decided to relocate the real gas tank above and still use the fake tank as trim for the real tank.
Also did a bit of painting, removed muffler and added a straight pipe, Added a rear swing arm with rear shocks...

I have an old Arco minibike that was originally a lime green color. Does anybody have a paint code for the original color, or a standard car color that matches?

My first mini bike build, a $60 yard sale impulse purchase turned slightly obsessive project. Ending in a photo shoot at the Hippie Killer Car Show in Southern California. All a bit strange for an English bloke.
Almost done, needs hydraulic brakes as I don't always have a football pitch of braking distance available to me, and I forgot to but new grips so I re-installed the beaten up and broken old ones for now.
