Thread: progress on the 73 resto

starting to get somethings done, just painted the frame, rims and tires done, some parts powder coated, some more parts polished, its time to start putting some of it back together.Thanks for the help so far, more questions to come. Don

Looks AWESOME!!! I love the color! You did a great job!

Looks perfect! Did you paint? Who's your paint supplier? Color looks dead-on!

Great job ! That's the way to do one.

Great job! I can't wait to see it put back together.

Thanks for the replys, I still have some parts that have to get chrome plated, and get the motor done but we are on the way, the paint is the 128.00 paint kit from dondirtbiker or vintagehondapaint.com. Don

Nothing wrong with another nice Topaz MiniTrail in the world.
I love Don's kits, for the money best bang on the planet!
What you gonna do to the engine?

engine just has to be rebuild, normal wear items clean and paint,thinking about putting the honda hot cam it while its apart,stock bore on the cyl, not 100% sure on the cam yet, bike had few miles on it. Don

I Like that cam, I always put it in when I do a 88cc also works well in a 110cc for bottom end use.

very nice, like the look of fresh paint. sometimes I wish mine was topaz orange
