Fuel tank straps, interior bins and some brackets all painted up today. I ended up having to replace five of the six square u bolts for the tank straps. The originals were badly rusted and most of the had nuts that snapped the threaded portion off when trying to remove. Some replacements were found online at 0030hrs and arrived the same day via Amazon around 1100hrs. A simple job to hear up one bend and straighten them out then place into the strap and reheat and bend back down.
The interior bins were in decent shape with only a few spot welds needing to be redone. From left to right they will hold, drivers view port glass block, bandolier of rifle ammunition and the WS19 spare tubes box. A web strap will still be required for this bin, but I’m still working out which buckle was used. Lastly are the under the fender wire covers for the side/tail/stop and headlight.
