Ok since everyone has been asking here goes. I spotted this thing back about 4 years ago in a guy's junkyard, it was actually beside his house off to itself. You could barely see it because of the weeds! I stopped and no one was there so I went back about a week are so later and talked to his son who runs the junkyard. His dad owned it but said he would sell it. It took several month's for me to get him and talk to him about it. He was asking to much money for me to buy it though at the time. I went back several times and asked about it but he never would budge on his price so I just left it alone until this summer when dad went on the buying spree!
The first pictures are as when I saw it the first time! As you can see it was not easy to spot. When dad and I went to look at it it wasn't there. I thought man he sold it but once we stopped and talked to Jack he had took it across the street and parked it up in the woods under a old barn. He put the rear brake shoes on it but not the fronts. I had them done first thing along with the carb rebuild and new front shocks. The day we got it while dad and Jack where talking we had to go down in the yard and get a fuel pump for it. It started leaking as we where talking.
it's got a long way to go but I think I can get it road worth by next HRPT in 2018! That's my plan any way.
