The tear-down continues and I'm down to a bare frame with all the modification welds removed, the new seat (that fits me) with its new seat stays all done and brazed up. The axles are out/off and there is only a little play in the front king-pin bushes. These will be replaced with needle rollers. The kingpins are in great shape as are the wheel bearings.
Surprising how heavy the rear solid axle is.

Brakes off and apart with a few sorry spots, but all doable and easy to restore.

Sure is easy working on cars compared to race cars!
