    I'll have to deduct points for not showing the blood that dripped off of your knuckles in the process.

      Easy, peasy. Little known trick with the VM's is to leave the cable tower off until you get them in. Cables and tower can be easily installed after the fact ...not so with the CV carbs.

        Okay.
        Had a try at the close-in-detail shot.
        P1020835c by Dave Vrnr, on Flickr

        I was noticing the detail of the mark left by the orings, and wanted pic of that.
        But I suppose the more apparent detail is the all various oil grime and dirt grit. (especially after seeing Sandys pic)




        Will decide at some point which picture entry to keep.

          They say that "Chrome won't get you home", which is fine with me, because this is NOT chrome.



          And it's true, chrome WON'T get you home, but it sure looks great while you're sitting there.

              The Rusty Old Scooter as mentioned in my signature.
              Despite 55 years, rust and checked paint, it still manages to have a bit of shine...

                Vespa is too easy of a guess.
                I'll try a Lambretta?

                  Steve, it's a bit of an outlier - Raleigh Roma, which is a rebadged Bianchi Orsetto.

                                I've seen his work and it's impressive how he can make aluminum shine like chrome!
