Working on a '68 Rupp and came across one I havent seen yet. There is a pretty cool "R" cast into the head of the axle bolts Might purely coincidental? Yea, I am easily amused :wink:
The head tube bolts is the same size and thread pitch only a tad shorter, it is blank
I have an earlier Rupp econocycle and it does not have them, but I know that bike was somewhat pieced together, I don't remember them on the '69 goat I had either, but again that bike was pretty questionable as far as originality as well. This '68 is missing stuff, but its never been fully apart till now.
