    Hey funk, nice hot rod, I like the little fender on the front. The 79 looks great, it may be a little hard to control as it sits though. I know a guy that could set you up with a fresh tank and sidecover set. He does a nice job. He did the copper chopper. Check page two of my photo album for a look at his bikes..

            Emblems? He refinishes them with gold and black paint, they look good but not metal shinned. You could zoom in on them or I guess I could snap a close pic on the copper chopper. You can do a good job on logos yourself. Sand of the gold with coarse paper in one direction. Paint thoe whole thing black and get some gold leaf paint. Paint the tops of the letters gold.(the hard part) scrape any goofs lightly with an xacto blade. Then clear coat them. It only will cost you paint. These are the ones I did.
