Restore bike to the way my father had it in the late 70’s. That plan rapidly morphed during the build after realizing how poor of condition everything was in
My father bought the bike in ’73 and he rode it all over the country. He sold the bike in ’89 to a friend to keep our house. Years later, that friend, sold the bike to my step-father, brakes went out and bike got hit by a semi. My step father bailed from the bike before it was hit so he was essentially fine. Step Father rebuilt the bike and did a really poor job. Step father passed away and biked ended up getting stolen from my ma’s place. 2 years later FBI found bike during a raid in another state and another 2 years later my ma got the bike back. Ma sold bike to my father and father gave bike to me. Bike has gone through to much to not be resurrected. I have pictures and documentation dating back to the mid 70’s.
