Yes 2 bikes were already torn down. I had many parts re chromed and re zinced. check out the rims on my purple one. They came out unbelievably nice. I paid tons of money to re plate them but I think it was worth it

What type of cranes did you operate Mikey? Or maybe...what was your favorite?
Did you work construction? Commercial or residential? Or maybe industrial/manufacturing?
I work for GM here in Michigan. They call me a millwright these days.

Looks like you definitely have the CT70 sickness now...and off to a impressive start.
Congrats on your retirement too. I hope to get there before too long. Then I can spend a Xtra 8 hours in my garage EVERY DAY
