Continuing on with getting lots of pieces and parts cleaned and painted. I had to take the ammeter apart. The needle got stuck. It spins on a small rod with pins that sit in small holes somehow it got dislodged and I used my micro tweezers to get the pins back in the holes. Works great now. The nickel is all warn off but I think I’m just going to polish the brass and clear coat it. I like the brass and I’m not doing a 100 point restoration so as long as it looks good I’m ok with it. Also it would be very easy for me to take it off the bike and nickel plate it later if I wanted.
As for the hubs, wow!!!! After 35 years I don’t think grease can be called grease anymore. It would be a better description to call it glue at this point. Anyway, with the old grease removed the parts look good.
