I have listed on Ebay a fully restored Carlton Corsa at a Buy it Now price of £550.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fully-Res...753729?hash=item3aca840881:g:1H0AAOSw6n5Xtu2x
Colour matched to the original paint on the frame by a professional Paint shop.
I stripped undercoated and then resprayed the frame to give it a "Fresh out of the factory look".
New set of decals and a couple of gloss coats later and this bike with it's now mirror polished chrome components has been described as a musuem peice .
Many of the original parts were in excellent condition and the bike even has the original Raleigh Race tan wall tyres it was originally sold with, new inner tubes of course.
Complete set of C nuts, Carlton buffs know these are very sought after because of their scarcity
Sadly the freewheel and chain were beyond saving, and as a matter of course the brake and gear cables were replaced and the wheels serviced, some spokes replaced and rear wheel trued.)
It is a fabulous ride, Auction ends on 17th September
