That's a nice bike and worth investing a few $$ to keep it right and working properly. Used Rupp TC assemblies and parts show up on ebay regularly below is one that recently sold there for $83. Tony

"it needs to look as original as possible keep as many oe parts as we can." Wouldn't it be better to keep it stock and replace the Rupp TC they work good without problems. I have a pair of Rupp Roaster2 bikes they drive good stock. Tony

I just bought some tags from Joe he doesn't have any rivets. I did check ebay B&S nothing much there, CL in my area doesn't currently have any low priced snow throwers. Tony

I checked ebay none available like the factory rivets that I could see, most of the shrouds there listed for HS40 don't have tags I will check other brands. I have viewed some of the projects from Markus I don't remember seeing him cover the rivets if you remember what build it was on that would...

Nice work great looking Rupp! I had a purple 71 as a teen loved that bike rode the wheels off it. I have purple and green 71 Roadsters I restored them years ago I have done a bunch of resto-mods stuff to them over the years I will be restoring them again maybe next year they are timeless...

Those headlight assemblies are chrome plated plastic and rare these days they show up on ebay now and then. Tony

That Rupp rust and other brand of rust big or small can be made to look new again.

I have shipped big items with Greyhound shipping they could be really slow up to 30 days during the holidays also, a manager at Greyhound stated the shipping business was not part of the Greyhound transportation business it was a separate company.
