- Just knocking out some of the grunt labor that every restoration requires. Paint prep and painting, rebuilding the wheels and repacking the bearings. Prepping the gas tank for sealant. Here is the list of stuff I used:
6001 Bearings - www.treatland.tv/SearchResult...
Puch Points assembly - www.treatland.tv/puch-batavus...
Total Spent so far: $168.50 - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Fantastic colour . Another great video . Thanks for uploading. You mentioned in the first video that there were hundreds of you tube videos for engine dis-assembly, but, in my opinion, your presentation and honesty makes your channel superior. Looking forward to the rest of the build.
David, I can’t believe you rattle canned that paint job. Looks amazing! Also you make the best moped videos on TH-cam. You really give us hacks something to shoot for.
Thanks a lot Jason! I got lucky with that paint job. I’ve had rattle cab jobs that didn’t come out nearly as good. The stars must’ve aligned.
Omg I need to change the bearings in my wheels. Thank for each part of this series. I have the same maxi luxe.
Greased my rear ones to i pulled the seals lol moped a 1980 puch maxi been sitting since mid 80s just has 2k miles on it
looking good
Very nice video, greetings from The Netherlands.
Hallo! leuk om je te ontmoeten :-)
Hi Dave, why paint first and then clean tank? Why not clean tank then paint bike??
Hey men really loving your videos! Watched them all last months. I'm building a puch maxi-N model and have rebuilded the engine following your video of the e50 rebuild. Awesome! Also love the part that you put the front fork in wrong 😋 nerd NERD 😂 greetings from the netherlands. Bas V
HA! Thanks Bas! Luckily for me, I get to edit the videos, so I cut out most of my REALLY stupid mistakes :-)
@@DavidFixesHisShit there is no such thing as a stupid mistake. Shit teaches you to get better. I'm wrenching on mopeds for the last 15 years so i did my part of stupidity 😂 what is the next project? Greetings, bas from the netherlands
Why didn't you do the tank BEFORE painting? A set of silver snowflake wheels would look beautiful on that. Nice Tomos TTLX you have there. I had a red one, but I am disabled, and got to where it hurt really bad getting my leg over the seat, so I sold it and got a 1979 Sears Free Spirit Deluxe (Puch Kromag) stepthrough. I paid $950 for that, then I had to put new tires and tubes on it, and replace the carburetor. Yes, I actually had to replace the entire carburetor. I got a new Bing, didn't want to go chinese. The PO had left ethanol gas in it and it totally destroyed the carburetor. Fortunately the tank was not rusted. So far I have almost $1500 into it, with all the various bits and bobs, and I'm not doe yet. It will be a lifelong project (also known as a motorized money pit) But the fun makes it worth it.
Break cleaner in the eyeball in 3-2-1... motherf*****!!! 😂
what kind of grit sand paper did you use??
where did you purchase the stickers??
Rewatching this for the hundredth time to try and absorb some of your moped juju. I'm currently in the process of stripping down my frame and painting. I'd love any pro-tips or words of advice/caution. Also, curious as to what drill bit you use to remove the vin tags?
Thanks a million!! I really love your vids!!
Heya Kelley. Congrats on being (I think) my only female watcher 🤣. You prolly don’t want to take any advice from me, since I’m mostly just winging it and figuring it out as I go along. But if I did have one piece of advice it would be this: just go for it! I think a lot of people sit and think on things for too long and are scared to just get in there and do it. I’ve always been a big believer in just doing it and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Worst case, you have to do it again. Sounds like you already have that lesson learned, since your bike is in pieces and you’re painting. Awesome!
@@DavidFixesHisShit I'm sure there's dozens of us! Dozens!
@@DavidFixesHisShit PREACH!!
