Looks like my Grandad's Hillman Avenger (just kidding) - Welcome fiveofeen - your bike seems like a bargain and I love the paint job, too. Good luck with it.
SteveD - I've been trying to send you a link for some 550 manuals to put on the FAQs but not sure if my messages have been getting through - here it is again in case I have been doing the PM thing wrong (very likely)

Welcome Tim

Hi Tim - welcome!  I think you got a good deal.  You can't go wrong for $400... and as you can see from your company here in this forum, you have 3000 colleagues who think very highly of these vintage CBs.  I've learned a lot in my two months on this site.  I'm glad for you its not seized...that would put quite a damper on your enthusiasm. 

We're pleased to have another Michigander.  We have a loosely formed SOHC4-Michigan group.  Chris Schneider (in G.R.)  formed a mailing group this summer and we plan some rides next spring.  Let me know if you want me to add you to the mailing list.

-Gary

PS....I'm fond of green bikes myself :)

Welcome, five

Looks like a '70 AAR Cuda to me, not too shabby.  Personally preferred the Lime Green option, tho ;D
