precious metals

Just picked this up from the zinc plating co. $65 anything I can put in a box. Stripped cleaned re-zink. There is enough hardware to do four bikes axles,swing arm ,springs chain oiler brackets plus a ton of extra nuts bolt etc.
I might separate a complete hardware package and toss it on flebay see what happens. I have a 73 I am restoring now and a 75 in the works. Should look good
