It is at about 75% restored. Needs some electrical work and spit shine. All original from owner's manual to seems like the tires too. I'd send some pics later. Right now I'm trying to get spark at the points but not seeing anything. I also need to try for spark at the plug wires and head but have a boot that isn't all there and I don't want to buy a coil for 1 boot.
