Hi fellas, Wayne was good enough to let me join your forum so Thanks! I will start off by letting you know that I do NOT own a sandcast 750 but I have a good friend that has 4. The reason I joined your forum is that Leroy want's me to restore his latest sandcast purchase, Frame #56 with engine #79. I do not take this task lightly, I understand the historical value of a sandcast that was produced this early. I want to share and gather information so this bike gets restored as correctly as the availability of parts allows. The bike came with a lot of spare parts that appear to be correct for an early sandcast including no-number pipes, short chain guard, 5mm throttle cable, wrinkle tank, meters and a bunch of other stuff we haven't looked through yet. Leroy is a well to do man with an incredible motorcycle collection and he doesn't mind paying for good work and rare parts. He has over 500 restored motorcycles and his Honda collection is over half of it. I do restore motorcycles for a living so I know what I am up against. I am very curious to see how many of the original parts that came with the bike are still on it. I am restoring an early CB750 K1 for him right now so it will be two or three weeks till I start on it. If anyone cares to see some of the restorations I have done I can put up a few links. I specialize in Kawasaki triple and Z1s but I have done other brands.

Here is #56 as Leroy bought it with K1 tins.









Here are his other three sandcasts. The first two are restored and the red on in back is original.






The red bike in front is a Vic World bike, Frame #546 and Engine #661
The blue bike is from the Jimmy Dean museum and it is Frame #446 and Engine #478
The red bike in back was originally sold in Rochester MN and is an unrestored bike. Frame #1095 and Engine #1319

I am really looking forward to hanging out with you guys.  

Leroy also said he would fine with adding his bikes to the registry. I think one is already in there but maybe under a different name.
