It's moving along quickly and clearly not at the expense of quality.

I like the Porsche mat too.

Hey there 3465cam...

Your resto looking very fine, and hope it comes along well.
I'm doing one up also, but have some detailing problems with the front hub assembly. Does the width of your hub assembly equal the distance of the mounting points on the forks at the axel?
I'm thinking these dimensions should be the same, without the need to shim, or take up slack with shoulder on the tommybar. I have 3~4mm of space to take up. I believe I have the correct
brake plate and drum/hub (12 ribs supporting the bearing tube), however, there are two different P/Ns for the speedo drive plate (one for the street models, another for the SCRs).
If you get an opportunity, and assuming your hub assembly fits snugly in the forks, would you measure and reply/e-mail the length of the bearing support tube in your speedo drive plate? Mine measures 28mm.
Hope your SCR goes together w/out any snags, and oh, I've got a square case engine on the garage bench myself ('75 860GT). Just needs time, and the dreaded big funds for that one.

Thanks, and as you guys say, Cheers,

Cliff
