Welcome!!! post some pictures and these guys will let you know every last detail, they might pick it apart a little but it's all in trying to help you out. It helps if you tell them if you're looking to make a runner or a shelfer or a rare early shelfer, don't worry about those who toke the purist pipe :wink:

Welcome!!!

We'll be more than happy to help anyway we can. Markt311 gave some great advice. Feel free to ask questions regarding restoration tips. One thing I can tell you is not to use acetone for the older orange 5 spoke wheels...they will melt.

Regards,
highwayracer
