Nice score Tom.:thumbsup: I'll feel better when you have it in your possession. You have just enough time to get that ready for Windber. I think that will clean up pretty nice. Welcome to the Rupp club:laugh:

Nice score! Please post pics after you get possession. Just so we can all rest....lol: thumbsup:

 

[buckeye]

Will do.
This is going to be the longest wait until 1pm ever.
I've been awake since 4. My mind is racing.

Kinda like that first date with anticipation.:laugh:

Hopefully ends better than first date and I get a happy ending.:laugh:
Pics later.:thumbsup:

lookin good:thumbsup:

 

[buckeye]

Picked her up. Pretty rough. But, I have started with worse.
The chrome on the rims may be shot. I haven't done anything but unload it. Fenders look salvageable. Frame has no cracks or rewelds.
Bars are useable. TAV is all there. Even has the belt.:thumbsup:
Tires have lots of tread but, not sure they will be useable. May be dry.:shrug:
Overall, I think I did good or should I say great for what I paid.
Just a super nice guy too.:thumbsup:
The extra engine is a little side popper h35. Score. Has good compresion and looks like it may work for something.
Overall I did great!!!!

Thanks for looking. It's too friggin hot to do much today. 105-110 with the heat index. And 70% or so humidity. Just sweat thinking.:laugh:

 

[buckeye]

So ya don't think I'm bsin.:laugh:
Side popper.
And it may be for sale if someone needs it for that special bike.:thumbsup:

 

[Havasu Dave]

What's the shroud side like Buckeye? Could it be a Lauson?

I just had some 10" rims chromed at $100 each. (No spokes) Lots of nice parts there.

 

[OND]

Buck it looks like a good start to me .:thumbsup: I love the cyclops eye !

 

[buckeye]

Dave, the engine as I looked at it briefly, says Craftsman. Haven't looked real close. So, I assume it is the wrong engine.

You are talking about the one on the bike right?:shrug:
And there is a box of parts for the side popper.

There is no doubt, I will not be doing a full original resto on this one.
Oh, and the inside of the tank is so fresh and so clean, clean.:laugh:
I am just going to clean everything up and see what I have to work with. May just Buck it up.:laugh:

Might even chop it up, flatten that engine mounting plate and Rat Clone it.:laugh::laugh::laugh:

 

[Itype2slo]

The back brakes on these barely work with the hand lever. That wrench / lever may work better. Nice score:thumbsup:

 

[chipper]

Really cool Tom , make it yours !
