Still making progress. Wheels on temporarily so I can move it around. Harness in. Still need to install the new rectifier. Carbs on, tool box and filter brackets on. Headlight shell on. The next big item is painting the fenders and side covers and getting them on. The tank is solid but needs a lot of work (those 2 tanks in the background ain't it). Anybody need one? Still a few things I need and would be willing to trade.

Points are in, gapped and timed. Carbs synced and filters on. I elected to go with the original rectifier for now. If there's a problem later on I can swap it out for the RS unit. Harness reconnected in the headlight (what a nightmare) and the headlight on. Time to concentrate on paint.
