All metal pieces previously yellow passivated now zinc passivated! Yellow only appeared in 1970 I was told ?

The suspension has been redone since the first try was not optimal. Also custom shock absorbers were fitted

Also built "fenders" to protect the body from road debris

Upgraded the suspension mounts, as the originals appear a bit flimsy (at least the reproductions I initially got)

Lastly, I am looking for a pair of Fiamm curved air horns. The original Road Masters in brass (often painted blue). If anyone has a source, please PM me
