Far out Ev, ya settin a pretty unachievable goal right there,
At this stage the goal is to strip, catalogue, restore and shelve individual components and mmaaaaybee, do a resto
but sheesh theres a lot of other stuff on the farm that wont do itself so maybe I'll widen the goal posts and aim to get the ute unloaded in the next week....maybe

Looks to be the perfect recipe for you having a 1/ Totally stock. mint condition 78E
                                                                          a 2/ Slightly modified everyday rider 78E
                                                                   and a 3/ Radically modified chaindrive cafe racer / race replica like









and a bit of a story on that bike here- CLICK

Awesome pick up Jonezey! Curious as to how close the serial number of the Macho Maroon one compares to your other "twins"
