Ok so my son and I have a Manco 250 build going that we are waiting on paint, so Dad needs his own bike. 1969 Rupp Banchi that was is really rough shape. My plan is to keep it as stock as possible. I don't have the original powerplant so instead of a 2.5 hp, I think I will be going with a 3.5 but badge it as a 2.5. I bought some old stock inventory a few months back and a Banchi guard was in there. I had it rechromed and I picked it up today. I need to remove the jackshaft tabs that someone added and a brake tab the someone welded on the other side to be able to correctly use the brake when the jackshaft setup was on it. Wheels and kickstand are being burnished by Sam (Cambo61). I bought a set of rechromed forks of Joe51. Karen already did a seat for a Rupp Chopper that was never finished so I will be using that since it's the same seat. I also placed and received an order from Black Widow. Should be fun!
