    So picked up this 70 cr400 as my winter project, been after one for a while but wanted a home brew resto rather than a garage queen. Plans are to buy all the bits put it together, get it running and ride a few meetings over the year, then possibly strip it and paint it and get the tank done. Bike came as below but fitted with new piston and engine was loosley put back together. Popped the bike over to charlys at Husqvarna Vintage and stripped the engine to check the state of the internals plus put a crank case gasket on. Any way have sourced nearly all the bits, not started it yet, have tried to get all original parts. Luckily got some bars as the others where more Easy Rider than On Any Sunday. Only bits I am missing are the tabs that lock the clutch nuts on. Any help with them would be appreciated. We have a good spark so d day in iminant. Will keep you updated. Cheers Mark
