Picked up this 1970 Trail 70 down at the Portland Swapmeet. Plan is to add a few missing parts, clean it up, and let the kids destroy it all over again. Not sure if I will paint it or not...

Pretty decent shape. Other than the non-correct seat and cheesy kill switch, all parts appear to be original equipment. Does not look like it has been taken apart yet either.

Not too much...made a parts list of what I need.

I also media blasted the cases/covers and repainted them.

I needed some parts and found a guy in Enumclaw who has an awesome collection of 50 and 70 parts. I scored a straight swing arm, some rear shocks, and the front fork assembly I needed. I am making the pile of rear shocks into 2 good ones w/straight cans.

I also made a stand out of some scrap steel and a pair of brake rotors. It bolts into the motor mounts and should work good for painting it and assembly (some day).

Finally got tired of tripping over this so I removed the decals, sanded, and primed. Guess I have to paint it now :bang:

Base color is on. DupliColor Burnt Copper Metallic Lacquer. It has a bit of flake in it which should give it a nice 70's vibe after I clear it.
