Picked this up locally off of craigslist.
Needs some work but will be a cool project.

Anyone have ideas on the seat post.
I will have to fabricate one.
Not sure if it has to have a certain angle or not.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.

There was a guy on the Muscle Bike Forum who made some of those.
 
I sold all the ones I made.
You will need to keep the angle so the seat has clearance. Otherwise the bolt will hit the bottom of the seat.
I could not find a stem quill of the right size. An old bike shop up town had some quill bolts which were used on English bikes back in the day. I had to grind mine down to make them fit. They worked great once I ground them down to the correct size.
Here's my original next to the ones I had made.

 
wish I could get my hands on one of these so cool
