Hans,
thanks for the nice comments about my never-ending project.
I had the dash stripped and powder coated. That's it.
The gauges were in great shape when I got the bike. Just cleaned them.
I tried the flip cap on both of the tanks in the photo. It fit just fine
on both but I've not run fuel in either so haven't done the "acid test"
yet.
Not very informative today, am I? Sorry.
Some days are like that. I have a lecture in two hours. Better get my
act together. More coffee.

Ray, good looking photos of an even better looking better bike. A few questions: Did you restore the dash and of so, how did you do the little underlays underneath the idiot lights? Who restored your gages? You had a photo of 2 tanks with different filler necks. I understand from a prior conversation with Marc E.(I bought a tank from him) that there are 2 versions of necks - one of those is a police tank, the other is a civilian. The police tank requires that the ring of the flip top cas cap (you called it deco style) be modified in some way. Hans Ray Hale wrote:
