Hi all....

Im wondering if anyone knows what type of frame this is ?

Its my old bike from the mid 80's.  On the bottom under the cranks it has stamped -  OS 2551

Thanks for any help in advance.

Oh, , and another Serial  VM00819  on the inside of the frame down the back on the flat bit near the cog...

I also have another frame with  V6033 on the bottom of it, , My brother told me it could be a Webco ?

Thanks for the Replies guys..

This is the other frame, , this one I think is a Webco ?

Both bikes are from the late 70's early 80's.  They were mine as a young kid, and I want to get them blasted / powdercoated and restored to some condition so my kids can ride them !

Here is the other one, , this has V3066 on it....

If you have a look through www.bmxmuseum.com you might be able to find out what type it is. Just a warning though, there are a lot of bike on there. They are alphabetical to help out a bit.

white one may just have the shortest top tub in history. I like the look of the blue one, no idea what either might be but interesting frame that blue one. fork arms look to be slightly raked forward from the steerer. any stamping on the steerer tube? I like the look of them.
 Hit your parents up for any old photos they might have of you on them as a kid, chances are you might be able to see the og stickers.

White frame is a Webco Craig. Bit more info on the serial number, that V should be a W the 03 should be march and the 66? well are you sure its 66, where is the serial number stamped? It should be on the BB and there should?? be 2 sets of numbers. Webco is like Redline serial numbers ... crazy to decipher.

The white frame is a Webco Team frame. Very cool frame indeed!!!! build it up with mid 70's gear and you have a seriously cool 70's ride. Very nice.
The other frame looks like a generic type of frame.
