1st Restoration Attempt

[plankowner]

Here's what has been chosen to be my first full restoration project. I chose this because if I mess it up in the end, it won't be a financial letdown. I've done quite a few resto-mods on bikes but wanted to restore one to it's original "glory." I'm hoping for some tips and tricks from the pros on this site. I will catalog the resto through pictures. It may take a bit but i want to re-use everything I can on this bike. Let the party begin!

Are you sure it has to be restored? It's so awesome just the way it is! :wink:

If you do, though, I'm sure you'll do it justice, and I look forward to seeing some progress...
