Wow! Looking good! Putting your GS back together is the most fun and rewarding part of the restoration process. Enjoy and keep the photos coming. Tell me about the adapter or spacer plate that you're using for the QJET carb.

Bobby

Looking really GREAT.

I know you are very carefull but be sure and check your hood height with the carb spacer.

You don't need a puptent dent in the middle of your hood like I have seen on several 65's.

Keep the pictures coming.

She's going to be brand new again!  :)

I'm so glad to be seeing her on the path of recovery and I'm looking forward to a ride soon!
