I bought this one from a woman here in Portland. Another down-to-the-frame restoration. I managed to save everything but the seat, which I replaced with this vintage Troxel, recovered in black leather. New spokes, paint, pinstripes, decals and cleaned up the chrome as well as possible. Still missing the tank and the rear rack. Its a nice ride
