Memory fade ..looking for a thing.. mystery. .
« on: September 15, 2018, 11:04:19 AM »
 Cant remember what it was exactly..
 A part on a Honda chopper, a cover or part held m with the big bicycle wing nuts..
 Like a battery cover, or tool box m or a light or something.
 And the wing nuts were generic and nondescript. And I said to me.. Self, you have a very Much cooler , exotic,vintage French set of them wingnuts, you should use on your oroject, should you find them .

 WELl, I now found them  and can't remember the use.. go figure.
 Ring a bell ? Any ideas. .   Will post a pic later..
