Bought what I'm told is a 1969 sears roper. I'm tearing it down to repaint and replace what ever parts are missing that I can find. This will be my first so I'll post pictures as I go. I'm guessing that it will take several months if not more to find the missing pieces. Hopefully I'm not crazy for doing this considering it was a runner. If anyone knows anything about it don't hesitate to add a comment or suggestion. I'm sure I'll have some questions to come. And the first question is does anyone know what color blue it was originally. I found blue under half a dozen layers of paint and the sticker on the forks.
