Picked up a non running, hacked up basket case 1970 CL350. Started working on it this week. The frame was already cut off at the back. I welded in a hoop - which was a little bit of a challenge due to the stamped frame. Cut the hoop pretty short, it will be a cosmetic piece only, not weight bearing. Welded in a battery tray and plan to run the anti gravity 6ah battery. The bike came with what I believe is a mac 2 into 1. I'll be selling this exhaust as I picked up a set of original scrambler pipes on eBay that I plan to use instead. Hoping it turns out well..

How I got it:


Tear down and hoop fitted up:



This week I'll be cleaning prepping and painting the frame and breaking down the wheels for powder coating. I'll post more progress pics soon
 
Havent had the time to do get everything done these past weeks. Just broke the wheels down today and will be dropping the hoops off for powder coat this weekend. Painted the frame but forgot to take pictures. Hoping to have it back rolling again within two weeks. Then the fun starts! Polished up the forks today, so theres a little progress.

 
Ok, I'm in for the ride... I love a good scrambler, especially with the original pipes. Were they in good shape? I'll be watching your build.
 
Following along as I'm also working on a 350.
Let me know if you haven't sold the exhaust the bike came with. I'd be interested in it if you still plan to sell it.
