I only sold extra items over the last year or so. I just need to tuck it
away for a few more years and finish some other projects. My daughter just
started college, so first things first.

While I have mixed feelings, bet it was a big let down after all this time.
Hope
you held onto enough stuff to finish it out.

Thanks Don. Trust me on the throttle cable bracket. Junkman Jerry out of
Florida sold me a mint condition one for my 65 that was for a 4
speed...$175.00!!!!!!!! The automatic brackets were $85 bucks. I do not
think
there is another to be had. I looked for years to find one and came up
empty. I
too would assume the 361 and 383 would work.
On another note.The guy backed out of buying my 65, so I guess it is still
a
future project. I really would have been sad to see it go.

The other Don is correct. All that stuff is chrome. Note that the air
cleaner
is the unsilenced unit which means no snorkel and the carb plate is small
so
as
to allow the air to come in from the bottom of the air cleaner unit (under
the
cover).
Good catch on the throttle cable bracket. That would seem to be true for a
361
and 383, also. Others?

Everything
