ChipsPlace , Today 10:28 PMI am in the process of restoring a 65 pan. Of course the research is a challenge.
it appears bolt finishes can be either cadmium or parterized (darking in color).
My question is, on the '65 pan's was there a standard for the bolt nut finishes?
Or could it depend on what part was being installed! Motpr mounting bolts. Exhaust pipe bolts. Starter bolts. Any type.of bolt, LOL.
Thanks,
Chip

Architect,
Thanks for the reply.
But Palmer's book only covers up to '64, not 65's.
65's are a lone ranger, one year bike.
I was hoping I could find someone that has a lot of experience with restoring one.
All the little details are hard to find answers to, at least in print.
Anyone else have any ideas?
Thanks,
Chip

Best bet is to find someone with an unrestored 65 Pan (still a few out there) and then work backwards. Over next couple days I'll upload some factory pics of a 65. At least it will givce you an idea. Other option you might consider is to join the AMCA forum and post up there as well.
Your dilema is the same that I am going to face as I try and get my 65 back to a somewhat original condition.
Lastly, how about a build there? Where you at now on it?
