Although that post looks right, the handlebars aren't original. The shrouding is gonna be the hardest part to find. You will need the MV50 style shrouding, as the MS50 style won't fit right. So if ya see shrouding, try and see if the left side fan vent thingy has the cut-out part for the pedal. If so, it's what you are looking for. If the fan cover is perfectly round, then it's wrong, and it's the MS50 type.

The pedals will be easy. Many fit though. You can fit either style rack on it, but the chrome bigger one is what that one had. Tail light's gonna be hard to find too. Maybe an old Beetle tail light would look good til ya find one.

That gas tank cover is gonna be hard to find too. That style you want will have a V shape pressed into it, and the older MS50 has like 3 or so stripes pressed into it, and it will fit, but awkwardly.

The gas cap might be easier to find.

I would love your tires! I especially like that back one. I'd run it a long time, as my rear one is a '54 and it's almost bald now.

All my stands are sorta bent and bad, and I don't have one on mine right now. I see yours is missing. I'm gonna just mount a kickstand on mine, since these start in neutral without having to move as ya pedal.

Your chain guard looks nicer than mine. Is that rust and dirt on the wheels or just dirt?

That's the original seat, but if I were you, I'd replace it with an oldy Schwinn one or something. You can get new rubber tops for them from Motor West, and they also have nice on-line instructions to stretch it back on, but I'd still skip it. Those scare me.

Cables are all available at Motor West. I see the choke is mounted sideways. It should be up & down, on the steering post right next to where it is. I just replaced my shifter cable which is about nine feet long. I bought 10 feet. I'd recommend getting it from Motor West too, as it took me all day today replacing mine, and it was a nightmare job. Not like I've not been through it before though.

I wanna see this project through with ya!
