    I would be getting it going, change fluids and tyres and ride it the way it is. A survivor from another era thats as cool as hell.

    Stropp, will need to change gaskets seals as they go hard when standing around long time, then when you start riding it would start leaking oil

    Also bit hard to see it from that pic, but not original hope it still has drum brakes ,  pipes not stock, will need to check pipe to head as if its been ridden lot of miles the alloy that the pipe mounts too gets warn. Cow at L A Cycles sydney good with Pan's he still rides a 65 panhead.
