Topic: ** SOLD (x 2) ** Two Refurbished Sinclair C5's for sale £380 each ( Crawley)

[Karl]

I've just finished restoring another two Sinclair C5's from the Rotterdam batch.

This is number 5;







..and this is number 6 ;










I am very pleased with the way these have turned out, both have come together really well 

They are both fully finished and ready for use priced at £380 each.

Each of these has had the following work completed ;

Chassis shot blasted, followed by three stage paint process of primer , top coat and lacquer.

Rear chassis "hoop" shot blasted and repainted

Front forks shot blasted and repainted

Front brake caliper shot blasted and repainted

Motor and gearbox assembly dismantled, cleaned and re-greased

New drive belt

New brake cables

New front brake blocks

New decals where needed

New side stripes

Replacement inner tubes (all three wheels)

Front wheel bearings re-greased

Front fork assembly re-greased

Handlebar stem bearings re-greased

The all important C5alive wiring kit fitted.

They are slightly different to each other;

Number 5 has the white boot , Sinclair Vee Rubber tyres and original front headlight decals

Number 6 has the grey boot , Schwalbe tyres and our replacement c5alive decals

As to be expected, each of the bodyshells have some deep scratches in the usual places - front "corners" , underneath and around the seat etc. Overall these are very nice and tidy c5's ready for use, both have a fully working control box and pod. The lights on both are in full working order and both lenses are in a good condition


Battery not included, delivery possible at extra cost of fuel (return journey) email me for details. No warranty or guarantee implied or given as these are now over 26years old.
