New kid on the paso

[Antzo]

I'm impressed by the front calipers.
They seem the Brembo racing ones, if I have right seen.
If so, they would cost as half bike...


Or... Are they only gold painted????

Ciao

I have no idea but Paso 750 seems to have given the answer.

As I have said I am completely in point zero when it comes to Ducati knowledge, so there is a good chance you might get a lot of stupid questions from me like when a baby asks his parents why this why that. I hope you have patience

hi & welcome, congratulations!

no silly questions, but you may get a few silly answers now and then!

Best place to get info, anything and everthing has been done to them and the forum will be your best friend!

I too wouldn't have mine without this forum.

What sort of classic cars are you into?

cheers
Nigel

We all started from point zero

That's what makes this forum so special

Best of luck with your new project

I like all different schools for different reasons I appreciate as much a 59 Cadillac as much as a Fiat 500. At this moment my collection consists of a 79 Citroen 2cv-65 Cadillac Deville Convertible-79 Cadillac Eldorado Coupe-69 Opel Kadett Caravan-49 Mercedes 170V-89 Jaguar XJS Convertible-63 Volvo Amazon-1989 Mini Moke and in 2wheels apart from the 907 I have a SOLEX (the cult french bicycle with the engine on the front wing) - 197? MotoGraziella Folding Scooter, and a 1953 HMW Bambi (Austrian Scooter Rarity)

Some are Running and some wait there turn for restoration. As you can see in the picture I have trained them to help one another this is my 2cv carrying the hood of my 65 Caddy to the body shop after a leaky carb caused a fire to my poor Caddy

Over the years have passed through my hands many more classics

Congratulations, You have also Volvo Amazon !!!

I have only V70 Bi-fuel from 2007 Anyway i drive it very carefully when i see motorbikers that nothing bad happens, like to "Jaffa" happened. Sorry for him, no matter such can happen with every car brand, if asshole is sitting in drivers seat! God bless Jaffa allways with Volvo car drivers

Btw, i know one 750 Paso owner in Volos / Greece and i have visited him (great guy!) and also visited Skiathos island with my 907IE.

Btw, have your hand passed any 1965-66 Ford Cortina's ???

The Amazon is a great car, there are people in Greece who still use them as everyday cars as they are very reliable.
I have to admit I have mine for sale as I would like to raise money to restore the 65 Cadillac Convertible, and at the end of the day I would like to keep 4 cars at the most (my xjs, my 65 caddy, my 79 caddy and my 2cv). When you have many you end up spending more time charging batteries rather than drive.

I have not seen a Cortina on the road for a long time. Why do you ask?

My family bought such new one 1965 spring, 1500cc DeLuxe, 2-door, bright RED. We sell it away about 5 years ago and it would be nice to have one such, or GT, or maybe Lotus... Only few have survied here... I think, they sell them quite alot to Australia and to those countries "under U.K. pressure" those 60's.

I will keep an eye for one if it shows up I will let you know. As you have drive to Greece with your 907 I am sure you will not be afraid to drive from Greece to Finland with a Cortina

3500 euros

[Antzo]

Today I finally got my bike from the shop. I am 350 euros poorer, but hopefully I have done a thorough check up and will have a reliable bike till the next scheduled service. From what the mechanic told me the bike suffered from sitting in the garage and he suggested that I take her for a ride at least twice a month to keep all the juices flowing.
Now the only problem is that my stop light does not work (I have created a special subject on that as it might be a problem for another friend of this forum as well)
Soon I will take a few photos of my new girlfriend to show you.

Here are some photos of my new girlfriend and the next owner

the front part of the spoiler was crashed at some point and was repaired badly, at some point it will need to be redone, but at the moment I want to use the bike to get some steam off

[Finnpaso]

Very good fotos, but still wait fotos from Your "new girlfriend"

Quite nice Cortina, but for me, it MUST be -65, or -66 modell, 2 door, 1500 GT, or Lotus (or 1500 De Luxe)
