Still soaking in evaporust. Started out clear yellowish and has now turned dark brown so I am guessing it is doing something.

And because I am burning money on this project, I just picked up a seized complete motor for $100

Looks like I am on the hunt for new rims as well. Took them in to the plater. Rust is really bad on them, especially the rear. Was quoted 650/750 a wheel for stripping, grinding, polishing and replating

Well picked up some parts. Picked up the engine, also picked up a front wheel that is in much better shape than mine (also gave me 2 rear rims, spokes cut), a front brake lever. Still need a good rear rim.
Finally got my clutch cover off and started diss-assembly there. Question. Above the centrifugal oil seperator I see what looks like spider webbing. Can't tell if they are cracks. What do you guys think

Those are actually just imperfections in the casting. Nothing to worry about.
