Member Zunspec4 (Geoff) from the UK has been stellar in his attempts to get me the remaining U50/70 parts i needed for building up the bike from parts I had amassed.
Thanks to him, hes gone above and beyond the call of duty in getting a parts bike, stripping it and getting these items over to the US to save on "across the pond" S&H
Geoff many thanks again, because of you one more Suzuki will be saved from the scrap heap.

Cheers Allan,
It's been kinda fun to beat commercial shipping prices which would have made this little sub-project unviable. I just hope the US Postal Service can do their thing and deliver the parts to Jacksonville in one piece
.
When I brought the boxes through US Customs at Dulles the officer asked about the contents and I thought I was in for a seach. I told him they were antique M/C parts and we ended up having a converstaion on bike restorations. He trusted me and let me through without opening the boxes, I must have an honest face
.
Best regards
Geoff
