Too Far Gone?

[MrFixitcycles]

This was the day I brought home my new love. I intend to save this bike and make it beautiful. The parts, at this point, will be what I have on hand.
But the final version will be A 1975.

Do it! As long as you plan to keep it awhile.

This is what it look like today. (day34). The 77 gauges will be replaced when i get a set for 1975. Tank too is incorrect. It takes time to build a work of art.
I want to ride this season. I can make the build correct over time.

Nice job! I hope you get miles of enjoyment out of it!

Yes, looking good. I like to do the same, get them up and running so I can "ride and wrench" on the thing, then make it nice over the next few seasons. My '83 as I got it, up and running with a few changes, and as it is today .....

That looks AWESOME!! Great bike. Can't wait until mine is up.

This is the OEM tail light on my 1975. Before and after I refinished it. Yes, I saved this Tail light. It was up in the air for a while. Managed to sand off my fingerprints too.

Looks like they are now selling #10 cans of woop ass and 55 gal. drums of elbow grease. Nice work. Have fun
