1987 Elite 50s so far

Post by GIJoeBob »

When I bought my scooters this one was a pile of misc. parts. Here is what I have so far-

At this point I need the front turn signals and some minor body panel work to have it structurally complete. At that point I plan to paint.

The purple color on the muffler protector is very close to the color the "pink" parts used to be before they were faded. I plan on shooting the same paint on those parts and gloss black on the remainder to make it look original. I also plan on painting the wheels the same purple. I hope to do the seat the same way but I doubt I will be able to find the same shade of purple.

My main question is when I order replacement decals will they be in the original purple or some other color?
