Looks a decent start as most of it is there
I hope you have a set of pipes
They are as common as rocking horse poo
Forks are not chrome, just polish with sctchbright, they were never shiny from new, just scotch bright finish.
Steal seat bases are hard to find if yours is rotton but fibre glass copys are avaialble.
White and red is the best colour as well.
I like it.

Yellow and black ones are down on power mate.
Its a fact.
Ask on the aircooled site
Plus they attract flies.

I reckon a complete seat from Norbo but Roger Dennis from RD Design will refurb if you would rather, depends how bad the base is.
