Thats a Barn find if there ever was one. I feel for the previous owner.

Previous owner is a Professor. Wood and metal craftsman. His shop and home is immaculate. I gotta quit bragging, but I just unloaded everything, and I made out like a bandit, but it was his asking price. Of course I did not even think about haggling. Guy is moving, home/shop up for sale, along with 2 of his bikes, (he has 4). Got all the receipts etc. Bike had re-call differential changed out in 06. Got the original pipes, and the off-road pipes, and the cat-delete! And a Power Master, K&N filters, on and on. I just ordered some more steel shelves, so I can sort everything out. Wheels still have original Metzlers, hardly worn! I'm not going to post anymore until I get it rolling, I feel like such a thief!

Great find congrats, but NINE sets of handlebars that I can see. You could start a new custom trend like the 60's mods did with mirrors and lights on their scooters!

First step, frame painted. Gave it two coats of Oshpo, as it had some surface rust from sitting, after being sand blasted a few years ago. Let that dry for two says, then scuffed that a little and put on two coats of Eastwood's 2 part black gloss (2 cans). Ordered an Eastwood Tig200 machine, to do all the gas tank, rear fender brackets that will need to be fabricated. I know I'll have to grind some of the new paint off, here and there, but I want to get this thing rolling!
