Thanks Doc,
Lovin' the color myself and I'm almost done! I restored my engine, but wanted an expert to check it over before running it. I sent it to Tony Vavala in Vermont. Great guy - really knows his stuff (like Markus!). Thanks to Bob Gaudette for the referral. My engine should be back on Wednesday ready to install. It is an original Roadster 2 HS40. I also have an original TC-1, so this bike will be pretty darn close to original all-around. Even the front tire is an original Rupp tire. The correct fenders and headlight will be going on as soon as I can find them and get them plated, hopefully before fall sets in. I think I'll have a front fender later today, but chrome takes months...oh well.
