Newbie - Russ4700 - 02-11-2017
Hi. Brand newbie today from Kloof Durban I recently purchased an unfinished project which is badically a newly painted body shell and boxes of bits n pieces. Should keep me out of trouble for a while. She is an 82 Rebel 1275. So hopefully as i progressi will be able to pick up a few tips along with the way. Cheers guys

Welcome Russ.
Quite a few other members on here from that side of SA.
Post some pics of what you've gotten yourself into.
There's a forum saying that goes around: "Pics or it never happened"
Best of luck assembling. There is a wealth of knowledge on here so ask as many questions as you feel necessary.

Hi Russ.
Not too many original 1275 E rebels around. If your car still has the original trim, arches, wheels and interior, I'd say, try and keep those original features on the car. The will set your car apart.
Whatever you have planned for it, post some pictures on the group, we all love to see pictures of mini builds. Also, start a build thread to keep us updated
