From the album: johnwayne's cota 200 restoration
Here are the wheels before rebuilding, nasty, nasty. Time to remove the old spokes, measure them up and send for a brand new set of stainless ones front & rear. Strip the hubs & brake plates down to bare metal, 3 coats of primer, rub down with 400 wet & dry. Then 2 coats of satin black. polish up the rims as best i can and order new tyres front & rear
