Just a little update. Santa came bearing the gift of a new seat which makes my little project complete. Thought you all might like to see.

Nice Pug! I had the same one i think, it was orange just like that, same decals. I also had another one in blue.

Looks like a great ride in my eyes. Very clean too! More detailed pics?

I'm a sucker when it comes to Peugeots, i just won't pat too much for them unless it's any 80's model or one like yours that is in nice shape.

Enjoy! -Harry


edit: Sorry didn't see the other pics

Nice Pug, i have a white one like that but mine is in bad condition. Are those Kenda wheels i have the same ones. What else are your plans, you can say finished but that never happens, maybe some pedals, brakes, ect.

Nice to see another great Peugeot still rolling (though I've never been fond of that orange, sorry, even it is classic).

Here's my white one when it was new:

Sweet looking machine Jim. Here's my 1972-ish PX-8 that I converted to an IGH a few months back.

That bike turned out quite nicely! The saddle is a nice change to the bike. As far as completing the bike, I would think about putting a set of VO fenders on it. To my eye, that bike needs fenders for it to look finished. Just sayin'...
