Hi, just joined this forum having found a brace of NZ fizzies, bit different from the one I had in the UK when I was 16 though.

Both are early drum brake models, previous owner thought they were 1972 ish. No pedals, 5 speed and autolube too. Spent two days stripping them down, will take a lot longer putting them back together. Did manage to get them both running, one has been off the road since 1985!

No doubt I'll be asking loads of obvious questions during the resto... Apologies in advance!

Cheers,

Paddy

Here's a couple of photos (hopefully). Paid 600 bucks for the pair (which is about 240 quid). Guy also had a couple of kwaka kh's in very good condition for sale, but sadly my garage is too full.

Hi Paddy, welcome to the site. The links to the pictures did not work so I have removed them!

You need to set up a photobucket account, which is pretty straight forward, as the best way to get photos up! Or send the .jpeg files to me at andy@fs1e.co.uk

GOOD LUCK !!!

Andy
