I think I am purple metalic or its purple under the black spray can job. Blake A | Web Site Development | Ashford CT

Thanks I saw that, They look like plastic rim covers like hub caps that are held on with old rusty acron nuts.

Anyone know what color codes were used on the early Rupps. Was told this is chopper style - and the original color was a purple color. Plan on sandblasting and painting or powdercoating the frame.

I think my rims are plastic off an early Rupp. Are there any special methods to doing this not to damage the rim

The original color looks light purple. Think I will sandblast and either paint or powdercoat and then go from there. Thanks

Thats SOOOO Cool. Now I gotta restore this bad boy.... back to it's glory. Any other ideas on restoration would be appreciated. What motor to put in it? Color Code of original paint? Can you get those side covers?

Anyone :shrug: Also what do you think its worth--- http://www.blakeadesigns.com/#!mini-bike-photo/c1s8t
