Thanks for the photos Greg. I very much appreciated seeing them.
Is the problem in getting the later lever to fit the '78's perch, the slight difference in curvature near where the ball of the cable seats?, or is it the length of the area where the little notch is?Comment

This would have to come off.Not he exact cut line but the best I could get it.Comment

Exactly what I was looking to find out. I really appreciate it Greg!Comment

Happy I could help Dale.
Weather stripped the airbox lid.
Seems a bit odd to worry about that with these in the box but I did it anyway.
The glove box cleaned up real nice,repainted the tool holder.
A bit more sanding to get rid of the rat bike matte black
Looks good just a coat of primer I think.
The sidecovers are looking to be in great shape,thinking I'll just leave them in they're original state.Two less things to paint

Dale (rustybronco) suggested polishing the sidecovers,much better.Chuck Hann sent me the badges.Repainted the black and red to freshen them up.Comment

Wow. A little polishing and it's a stark difference. Looking good.
What'd you do to polish them?Comment

Took the paint stripper I had left to the tank.
Wire brushed the slag off,ran out of stripper and got to get more
After making sure the seat trim was ABS here http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum...d.php?t=189654 I reattached the broken bits with acetone.
Then made an acetone/abs slurry to fill in.Put it no the seat so it sets up where it needs to.Comment

Stripping is done, only 4 dents to take care of.Not bad for a tank it's age.Started refining the seat trim to,Another layer of slurry tomorrow.Comment
