Panasonic DX3000 Restoration Complete - Part 2/2 

This bike brings back so many great memories of my early teens in 1987. My best friend had that exact model. we would ride morning till the sun went down. RIP Mikey. Thanks for taking to time to restore this beauty.

I really enjoyed this project. Was so inspired that I found a fully original DX3000 on market place a stones throw from you! Cannot wait to get started with it. Keep up your awesome work!

I had a dx3000 stupid I sold it as it was my first bike with gears / old shimano 105 , I eventually found a bianchi from 1988 beautiful bike . The DX was a grey frame with pink handlebars and logo with a hint of blue , to me that bike looked SOOOOO!!! 80s ! ❤

Wow what an amazing job. I have a 1988 DX1000 still original and maybe someday I will do a full restoration. Thanks for the video.

Better than when it came out the factory 👍. Truly masterful and a real inspiration, it’s given me that final nudge to attempt a full frame strip to bare metal and new paint. I’ll be coming back to this vid and numerous others of yours and paying very careful attention. Thank you so much for sharing.😁

I had an 1987 Nishiki Olympic 12 I bought new when I was 15 and had the same group set as that Pannisonic. Even the rims.

Beautiful job!! Always loved the Panansonic DX 3000

Wow! Your attention to detail is awesome. This bike is flawless.

Top work Brett. I like to see restoration in condensed real time. That is, showing me the detail of the process but not necessarily the half hour of polishing. Keep up the great work.

The way you refinished the frame and parts, they look better than factory new! Kudos! The paint job especially. Can’t remember Panasonic ever have that nice finish…

I was wondering about those tubes that you covered cables with at those friction points... I saw you use them in another video, and I was thinking that when I was a bike mechanic back in the mid 80s we didn't use anything like that. I like it! Better than grease!

Patience and attention to details. I am learning a lot just watching this. Amazing work

…and I like the SINGLE bottle cage, since I used to ride often with just one cage…, and -for me, it gives a clean look.

Really nice build. The black and yellow is a nice colour combo.

Keep going mate . Nice content and restoration. You have support from my channel.

Very nice professional job, thanks for the video.

Mad skill. Well done Brett. She’s looks beautiful.

A work of art!

Another great video of a beautiful restoration.. Looking forward to the next one. All the best /STEEL IS REAL !

Hi, im a fan of classic vintage bike thats why I subscribe in your Channel and hope to learn & get ideas to build my olmo frameset

Great work. Well filmed. (And an epic hack at 7.47)

I discovered the plastic sheath trick, too. Nice.

Beautiful!

Very well done, Buff; she is a Beaut! (and I enjoyed the ultra-chilled music in the beginning - just saying!)

I like the silicone cable housing in the bottom shift cable guide however I would think water and dirt would be trapped inside.

Excelent work.

you're a master!

Awsome work here, an absolute perfectionist. What happens to all the bikes that you restore?

Congrats on 3k subscribers!!!

Absolutely fantastic result 👏 👏👏👌 Well done on what looks like a better than original factory issue.

that finish is next level. top job again :-) I can't recall us getting those bikes in the UK. maybe we did but I never saw one

Awesome Brett!

Great work and attention to details, truly inspiring. I'm about to do a restoration project and would like to ask what software do you use for stencil creation? I've researched quite a lot and could not find any simple enough for 2D printing. I use Fusion for CNC designing, but I guess it is not applicable here.

What price can this bike have on the market? I have one and I want to give myself an idea of the price.

Sorry I could not watch and enjoy this video with the music rather than Buff simply describing the step by step restoration process. Music I can listen to at any time, and I prefer to choose my own, thank you very much. There goes yet another channel my wife and I once enjoyed due to over-production. Pity.
