Picked up another Cafe project...

She's been neglected for a long time. It's gonna be a while before she'll trust anyone, but I think she'll come out of her shell and be the sexy babe she really wants to be
The ID plate is unreadable, but the VIN places her as a '75 CB750-4K. If the odometer is correct she's only got about 24k miles, but with no airbox and one sparkplug missing... she's locked up tight. However the trans is free and will click through the gears. I rolled it into the truck on two flats, but both tires/tubes aired right up, and have been holding pressure for over 24hours now! Hopefully that's a sign of things to come
Right now we're checking on whether or not she's stolen... just to be sure. Once that clears, the engine will come out for a rebuild, and the frame will get stripped/detabbed/powdercoated. The plan as of now is to graft on late model USD forks and an aluminum swingarm with single shock conversion.
I'll start a build thread once she starts on the road to recovery
