A few more parts.

This is a little late on what's going on but here are a few updates on the bike.

I am behind on rebuilding the bike as I had placed an order for some parts, waited about a month, nothing came. 
By the time I contacted the company, they searched and tried to figure out what happened and then re-sent my order I was about 3 months behind. It is now winter...
I have placed 3 other orders with a couple of other companies and have received the parts. Some were some rare parts that were missing and hard to find.

A couple of months ago I picked up a few more parts that I had re-chromed. The handle bars, part of a shock and 2 front wheel covers.
Here are the front wheel covers.

Here are some parts that I bought off Ebay, this is just a few of the 100 miscellaneous parts from the auction.
Included in that photo is the front and back plate fro the battery and the side bar that connects to the seat bolt(also pictured) to hold up the muffler. There is also the bolts that hold the engine on, I happened to get 2 sets of those. Those were some important parts I seemed to be missing, the painted pieces have been taken to be powder coated blue.

I have more parts arriving today from the US!! These should be enough to complete the frame/handlebars of the bike and I should be able to start working on the engine soon.
