i actully got all the wires, plug cap, ect.. for it in boxes i just gotta put it together haha, and i was looking fround and it has a brand new original set of clutch plates from 53 in the box still haha
 
I had an early '60s harley 65cc. The bike was made by Aermacchi for harley. There is a place in michagin that sell all the engine parts. If you need the info I will try to find you a #. Back when I built mine (5 - 6 yrs. ago) he wasn't on the web.
Very cool project
 
that is pretty sweet looking, i picked up some custom sheet metal pcs that were cut out on one of those computer plasma cutters and i made a new ace of spaces break petal, and i got some iron crosses, 3 leaf clover, and a string of bullets im gonna put on the bike haha i will get some pics soon
