Sorted the front end.. Replacing the 6 straight slotted 1/4-20 x 3/16 screws was a treat.. had to purchase some 3/8 long as that's all I could find in a vintage screw... I had to make a fixture and grind them to size.. add 1 more trip to the Hardware store to the list.. but its done and I have attached a before and after front end shot...
Wow!! Manchester 1, created a duplicate of the original saddlebags Tote Gote used... I just got them and had to try them on for size!! absolutely perfect!!
Its a Roller and the tires hold air and move this time!!! Just waiting on the Headlight bracket and rear fender struts to dry and then this guy is back in Garage for Chains, cables and the Engine!
I got the bike in the Garage, the rear fender is attached and I have the justrite light stick headlight installed.. Its possible I might wrap this guy up next week, if the weather gets nice...
Cables, Chains, throttle and then the Engine... If had more time and some gas I would have rode this guy today... but just as well, I need to remove the gas tank and fix a Run I found in the outside light!
