thanks for the replys
unfortunately there is no paint on the frame as its been sand blasted .
as for the stem on the murry it did have a gooseneck on it when i got it (many many years ago
)
i am looking for a picture of one to see if i still have the origanal in the boxes of parts i have
from when i was a lad .
been searching around my sheds and found the origanal crank/ pedals/ lester mags /and handle bars . im amazed i found so much of it after slmost 30 years of it being stripped down .
i have still got to find front forks /tires and a front brake (may not have had one origanally) and a seat for it .
i thought restoreing vws was fun
