Assuming these are difficult to find in original and unmolested condition, though it may require a substantial investment of time and green...

Mamma always said that good things come to those who wait, but that fishing boat I've been looking for always gets bought before I get a chance to ask anything about it. Except of course the one that the guy wants my arm and leg for. :laugh:

Hard to say based on that tiny picture but the pipes look like they are not rusted though.
I always look at the engine screws to see if they are mushed from being removed with a standard American screwdriver.

If it is clean and you have the time, find a titled frame for $150.00 and swap everything over.
They are great bikes!
