Steve P’s 1977 Raleigh Super Grand Prix

Posted

Here’s another tributatenspeed. This one is a 1977 Raleigh Super Grand Prix sent in by Steve P.

Hey Cameron, as long as I’ve got you right here.

Here’s the other bike.

This bike is a 1977 Raleigh Super Grand Prix, another one found by my son but this one was FREE and in very rough shape.

I restored it this spring to what you see here in the pics, it’s built with about 90% original parts and all work was done in my garage and since I couldn’t afford (or find for that matter) a correct decal set I had a friend make me some custom vinyl as a tribute to a hero of mine “Tazio Nuvolari”.

I used his personal gold tortoise logo for the headbadge and the “Corsa Tartaruga” on the cross bar roughly translates as “Racing Tortoise”.

Regards, Steve P

Thanks Steve

    Well, Steve, you sure have a nice, clean Raleigh, now!
    Looks like you’ve done a super restoration that anyone would be proud to ride!
