Well ;

You alls know I've been in The Auto Trade a long time (decades) so I have learned a thing or three ~

This particular Motocycle came to me with not only keys but original title , registration papers and the old blue & yellow license tag I want to keep so I broke out my <magic> phrase Ca. Reg. 256 form and have been patiently trotting my self and the Moto around hither , thither and yon , in the end I expect to get title & tags in my name shortly and retain the blue & yellow license tag , this is just another one of those foolish things I do to hold onto a rapidly vanishing past..... .

Come to the DMV in El Monte it's way better

FWIW ;

The one in Lincoln Heights is terrific as they expect no one to have any correct paper works and so make a point of being very helpful , the lines are to the curb always but well worth the wait IMO .

The Auto Club will always be your best bet but , they're not always able to do quite what you want .

I may try to make it up from La Mesa.

[VDOG]

Ok what is a Chilli Johns?

Randy the truck is coming along great. Looks good.

VW Nate thats a cool Honda you have.

Andy whats wrong with being a little fat? LOL

Dano I thought the Escondido meet was on a Saturday, not Friday. Again, if I dont go out of town, I will make it.

Did I cover everybody? LOL

[VWNate1]

Chili John's in an old timey hole in the wall place in Burbank , they do Chili and nothing else , it's *very* good , they have different typs and let you sample a bit before having " A Bowl Of Red " .

I have quite a few old Honda Tiddlers , the blue one is new to me , I have much tinkering to do to it before re selling it in good running order .

Amazingly , I had to remove the engine to access the rectifier ! .

Anyone know where I can have the tiny Moto seat recovered ? .

TIA ,

I'm going. Maybe I will have most of my truck cut - n - buffed by then...if my arms don't fall off.

Randy your truck is looking good keep at it. When I was 17 I was a prepper [painters apprentice] and I learned how to buff cars with a pneumatic Sioux grinder/buffer, these suckers weighed about 10 lbs. maybe more by the end of the day my arms and shoulders were beyond numb. Nowadays I use an electric and I'm still numb.

....I do need to get out. Well I would go to that upcoming show but my truck bottoms out on any lil bump. So free ways are not options to drive on right now. I need new exhaust pipe,shocks,wood bed floor,turn signals not workin. alot of mickey mouse work from previous owner. the list just goes on and on. Barely had my 65 for a month now.

What happened to your other truck? The '67 or was it a '68?

67 chevy c10 longbed. Thanks for hookin me up with those parts Dan. I didnt expect to sell the truck but I really badly wanted a 60-66 chevy truck. Dad had one back in the days and got me started on a couple of them. Now I finally got this one. It definatly was fun to find parts for the 67 and the new owner drives it daily.

Hey VDOG,

A guy at work wants to trade his short fleet for mine, his is in better shape...

We'll see...

Hey I like the '65!
My uncle had a silver one just like it. He'd pile about 8 of us (my cousins) in the car when we were kids and we'd head up to the mountains or down to the beach...good times...
