Thanks Art for the compliment. The bike was repainted by Bicycle
Speicalties. This is Mike Barry's shop in Toronto. The "plumes" are not
paint at all but I had them made as decals from pictures I took from my 3
star which has the origianl painted ones. If you are restoring one and
need decals let me know.

Hey friends and bike fiends,
Taking impulse from the Italian bike triads (mssrs. Brandi, Maasland &
Agree) Greg Softley and myself have seen a small niche evolving whereby
you yanks seem to be hungry for our Aussie made Malvern Star 5 Stars and other assorted hard to find bikes that hail from our former penal
colony. We have teemed together (ed. steady now) and are set up to cater for your demand. It's taken a little while in funding, what with
Pimpissimo\u2122® having to sell about 7.5 million decals and I having just sold off the manufacturing rights, die's and tools for remaking Gaslo bar plugs, World logo hoods with Gay Pride stripes (aka Ken Denny spec.) and original issue 43 tooth 151bcd chainrings .... then there's
the more than 2 dozen place markers I had arbitraged for e-Richie frames with only a 2 week wait time. This is e-Richie the little known
ecstacy dealer from Amsterdam who likes to dabble in ferrous metals and
brazing. Funnily enough the Connect-ey-cut e-Richie® also wears a Pirate earing and first edition Jordans too (?) ... but anyway, we been
pimping big .... all the time and large too, just so we could help our
fellow american friends out so each of you have a chance to ride a classic Australian made lightweight bicycle.
So, the first delivery is due to land on your shores in the next week or so. But we need the money now ..... $500usd each and only $9.95 for
each additional bike (strict limit of 50 per customer).
