Finished it up this evening......One of the best running CL77's I have ever ridden.....This was a really enjoyable restoration, no major issues and everything came down and went back up with very little cursing.   Tomorrow I am cleaning the garage early and look for the three or four missing tools that seem to disappear during every project.  In the afternoon I am taking the Grand-daughter to her horse riding lesson, going to spend the afternoon watching her work her mare while I sit under a big oak tree with a good book.  I need a little break before I start thinking about the next one.....

As ALWAYS, Britman excellent work ! Some day my CL 72 will get the treatment, I have owned it since I was 15 and I'll be 72 in August.

Well done. Looks just like the one that my oldest brother had in 1967.

That's a gorgeous bit of work, but it seems you have a knack for turning out that level of work... Congrats on finishing another and enjoy the time with the kiddos, they grow up too fast... Enjoy your break and some riding...
