Hi from NC
« on: December 28, 2008, 10:23:59 PM »
Hello I just purchased a 1970 Bridgestone 100 tmx that I plan to restore. I have saved some sites on my computer for parts, but does anyone know where the best place is to get headlight buckets, seats, and all of those little rubber bits like the one that covers the carb ?? I look forward to hearing from anyone that may have any interest in my project. Thanks

Karl

Welcome, Karl.  Where are you in NC?  I am just just outside of Charlotte.,

The bigger stuff was mostly scrapped for these bikes, as I understand, when the Rockford warehouse collapsed.  In the case of these thinsg, you'll need to find one if good used condition and have it restored.

Some rubber bits are in reproduction.  Check with the folks like Richard, Red Import, etc.  Otherwise, check eBay, and let folks here know the specific bits you are looking for....

Good luck,

Scot

Thanks Scott, I really appreciate the reply. I am in Hickory and my bike is a total basket case. Its been sitting outside for over 38 years so you can imagine. Amazingly its not locked up. So far all I have done is strip off the tank and stuff to get it down where I can have more room to remove the engine. Its slow going since everything is rusted up pretty good, but its fun.
