This is just a quick rebuild of a toy dirt bike, had to rebuild some of the frame, take it apart to repaint, just need a figure to put on it Dakar rally style.

This is all the parts

I hate the toy plastic, it's too soft, but it should be ok, by the time I put some dirt & dust on it, and this one will be a little different
