      Good question, get it back on the road which to be honest wouldn't take a lot, wings, 2 small holes in foot wells,brakes need sorting , tyres and see how it goes
      Or get it how I want it , Ermine white etc bit of a nod to the twin cam.

                  The chap who owned it had it sprayed black in 72, it was blue mink originally, but the lacquer feel off
