Harry, I think it was refurbished for show by a fellow addict who went through a divorce. He's surely retired, now. I picture him in parades and at shows.
Now: Why RUTH?

Very nice Frank...

Did you get a deck with it?

 

[fcurrier]

No deck. Of course if someone wanted to donate one ... show quality, of course ...

Do these holes look like they're drilled for "proper" headlights? Were they "headlamps" in 1964?

Very nice, Frank...an excellent model choice for royalty status!

Frank, are there matching holes on the opposite side of the grill frame? As you probably know, the 70/100 would have had the headlights mounted into the space above the mesh grill. I suppose it's possible someone back in the day mounted Original style headlights. Do any of these dimensions match up?

 

[kmcconaughey]

Or, more likely a PO did something like what was done to my #2 125.

look like those holes are for home made lights or candle holders

 

[fcurrier]

No, Kraig, and I asked a dumb question because I know the headlights are supposed to be mounted in the upper part of the grille. Howsomever, they'll make great holes to fabricate flagholders to!

Very nice frank. My first thought was its gona take a long time to move all that snow with that cart

Frank C - hold your horses there - I see what looks like a mule drive but it's not bolted to the sides of the frame. What gives with that??? And what's holding it on???

And another thing - the black S/G's didn't come out until the W/F production.
