Here are some close ups requested by an interested buyer. If anyone would like any more specific close ups, let me know. Note that I re-faced the gauges (because the faces were damaged and sun-faded) with water transfer decals. Also included are 4 shots of what it looked like when I bought it and began to strip it down. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.

Motorcycle's For Sale / Sandcast for sale in Connecticut- SOLD SOLD SOLD

Hi guys-
I'm presently putting out some feelers for the sale of the Sandcast CB750 I currently own. Last October, I was looking for a cheap CB750 to turn into a cafe racer over the Winter and found a horrible CB750 chopper in upstate NY which I purchased. It had been sitting under a tarp for an unknown amount of time but the price was right. I was told that it was a '72 and took his word for it (didn't bother checking into it since anything older than 1980 doesn't need anything more than a bill of sale to be registered in Connecticut). I'm about half way through my build and decided to research the serial numbers. I found that I have a sandcast engine and frame! The engine serial number is CB750E-1005779 and the frame is CB750-1005528.
Since I do not have the budget to return this sandcast to its original form and because I believe that these rare bikes deserve to be rebuilt as only an enthusiast can, I am interested in selling the project to a collector. Many of the parts are aftermarket (seat/bars) but most other components seem to be consistent with the sandcast.
I have been in touch with Steve Swan who has been very helpful with information and guidance (Thanks Steve) and I'm at a point now where I would certainly entertain offers. I do have one interested party which Steve put me in touch with but would like to know how much other interest is out there before I make a final deal. Included are some pictures of the project as it sits. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Thanks.
