Scrambler Cycle
 
The first time I saw this Laverda SF2 I wasn't sure what to think. Who would have someone paint an Italian beauty in such a way?  Anyway, the short term goal is to see if its a runner. It may be up for sale after that. Not sure what to do about the paint. I was thinking about seeing if some paint stripper will lift the top layer to find the original paint underneath. I have my doubts though. Then again, I'm not sure I have the heart to try.

To take the painting off use EZ-Off oven cleaner in the spray can. I use this to remove lettering from truck doors and it doesn't normally damage the automotive paint underneath. This will work if the art was done with lettering enamel. I run a sign shop and this is what I would do.

who painted the deer? Bob Zinda painted scenes like this for paying customers at on time in his life. Bob gone now but I'd like to know if this is his.

Hello Mark,

I knew Bob Zinda as well. He came to many of the sidecar rallies I hosted. It is not his work, it was done by Laura Schneider in 1979.

thanks
