1972 Ossa Stiletto TT -- Freshly Painted

This is my 1972 Ossa Stiletto TT.  The paint color is "Safety Orange".  I matched it to the original paint that was hiding underneath the rattle-can job performed by a previous owner.  Paint was applied by Jaime's Auto Customs in Toppenish, Wa.

Gold pinstriping was a performed by Ron Pomeroy in Yakima, Wa.  This is an old fiberglass race bike so even with extensive body work there are quite a few imperfections.  Ron was able to apply straight lines in spite of some waves in the fiberglass.  This is the second bike Ron has pinstriped for me.  He is great!  I highly recommend him.

NOS decals were purchased from Alex Snoop in Monroe, NY.  He has been a great resource for Ossa parts.
