Here is your early Christmas. I found the actuator arm I needed here: Black Widow Motorsports Home Black Wido Motorsports Brake Parts Page Brake Actuator Arm You Need I would email the guy with your photo. I also have a 69 that was missing the actuator arm. He was nice enough to put a...

I found a NOS actuator arm at Black Wido Motorsports Black Widow Motorsports Home Black Wido Motorsports Brake Parts Page Brake Actuator Arm I Purchased Owner had a part I thought might be it, he was nice enough to add a photo and I made a purchase here of a number of NOS parts. Dave

Looking for the chrome tank used on a 68 TT-500 Roadster or 69 digger etc... The triangle shaped tank with the cap near the top of the triangle. Dave

This brings up an interesting point, probably for another thread. What I do to return it to stock will be only for personal satisfaction. People get really tied up into returning things to exact stock. For me, I don't think there is any chance a museum will be intested in my work. Also...

Sounds like we are arriving at the conclusion it's a 1969 Digger. I'll leave it open a bit longer in case any ohters want to add to it. Also, maybe we'll hear from Bandit 40 again to see if he is so swayed. I appreciate all your help. It will give me more confidence when sourcing parts...

I have a Rupp 4 1/4" brake. It's missing the brake actuator lever. The lever the cable pulls on. I found the levers on ebay however they have an oval hole. This lever should be one with a square hole. I'm not certain but I think this is off a 68 or 69 Rupp C-350. Any ideas accepted to...
