Sorry I took so long, anywho heres a couple pics. I just finished the frame.

Im a little confused, maybe someone can help me out... on the frame, it shows the manufactures date to be 12/86, so correct me if Im wrong but Im thinking that would make it an 87, yet, I have 4 lug hubs, I dont remember whether the motor was a five or six speed (its been apart for awhile) and I do not have the T-shape seat if that helps any. Wouldn't that manufactures date make it an 87? Thanks for any help guys, I appreciate it. Im kinda new to the LT scene


Anyway here are the pics:

This is when I stripped all the old paint off



Now here are a couple after pics when I was done painting her...it's a semi-flat black color. First pic is the ending results, second pic is right after the primer








And thanks again for the welcome

You have an 87 lt250r. You may have gotten an early model of the 87 that had the four lugs (24spline). Most of the 87 are 5 lug (26 spline). It could be an aftermarket axle also. You have the newwer 87 powervalved engine which is the six speed. There is more aftermarket for this engine than the 85-86 lt's. Keep us posted of your progress!!! Looking good
