Trying to decide which way to go with this little guy, my buddy gave it to me. The engine has never been opened up, been sitting outside in Alaska for years, the inside of the tank is very, very good, the tires are gone, the axle jam nut has been welded, might be a candidate for steel wheels? front fender is nice, but like the rest of the paint, chalkie, pull starter still there, muff is gone, I have the carb boot, still soft, bars are perfect, it was just parked and the environment has had it way with it for the last 5, 10, 15 years! Still has the plastic thumb throttle too.

I have the rear seat and fender, there is a big chunk missing from the fibre glass, the vinal is trash, foam is ok, pan is bad.

If I were to part it out, where would I start? Which parts are worth the most??

does that tire hold air? if so id start there $$$ just look around ebay and research for a few weeks on which parts go the fastest and sell for the most $$ then see what you have to work with and let the parting begin. Also could try postin parts on here.

put er back together IMO... Glass fenders are easy to fix...All the important parts are there...Put some later wheels and hubs on it and run it!
