Hello Carpy,
I am currently in the process of moving and as much as I would like to finish this project it just will not happen anytime soon. Unfortunate that I have to let go of many of the cars and bikes that I have been collecting in the last few years; As previously discussed; I thought I would let you know about the bike before I post and sell it on the auction site (which I hate to do). Perhaps you might have interest or know someone that does. It will be nice to know that someone will finish this bike and cherish it like I did.
