I'm scratching around for the best alternative to the original '55 brake system. I would like to go with disks on the front (Going to leave the original suspension) and add power assist dual master under the floor like the original. I also plan to dress up the original 235 with a couple carbs...

I like "new not rebuilt" when I looked at the carter's at Langdon's. Price is right too... Thanks again..

Thanks Cycledog.. She's a real "barn find"... 17K miles... I think I'm going to keep it as original as I can. Disc brakes, lowering springs, 235 six with a couple carters..

Thanks Lowbuckrats... I just looked at the Flood Penetrol info online.. Not sure if the cheep penetrating oil that Willowbilly mentioned would be the same or have the same result?

Thanks all for the advice! Linseed oil sounded like a bad idea to me.. I'll start cleaning and rubbing and see how it looks.

Just a few pics of my recent purchase. Any ideas about the patina (rust) and how to smooth it up for clear coat? I read about simply using linseed oil instead of clearing.... Ideas welcome!
