I would like to put closure to this project. I spoke about hanging my custom "blind" Buco Bags on this bike. Alas, the bike is complete without them. The bike has a potential buyer this week. Below are two final pics.
About the pending CA77 bike that was gifted to me. Well...not quite. Another orphan 1964 CA95. This poor little bike was buried in a pile of "stuff" in a barn up north for decades.
The last visable sticker on the forks reads 1970. I felt sorry the bike and decided to do a long term restoration. The tank, petcock, front fender, speedometer are wasted. She sits tonight clean of mouse nests in the salvation shed in good ole Georgia waiting on the sandblaster and parts.
She might be a little finnesse bike...don't know yet.
