New member with a new project

Hey all. I'm glad a site like this exists. I've been a motorcyle enthusiast all my life. My dad recently passed away and I now have his 1967 Honda CB77 Superhawk which is complete. It's been in a shed for the past 20 years and I want to restore it. Although it doesn't need everything, I'm doing a ground up resto. It has some cosmetic damage (from me) when I took it out on high school graduation night and wrecked it while being chased by the cops. I need some front end parts. I for sure need a new front fender. I could use the upper fork tubes and the headlight mounts, too. As I break it down and start over, I'm sure I'll be replacing a lot of parts. My dad bought the bike new in 1967 and I have the original title and receipt. He paid $686.00 for it. He put high bars on it and they're still on it now. I will probably leave them. He also put louder pipes and I'll be leaving those, too. If anyone has any parts that you think I may need, drop me an email at fourtycaliber@joimail.com or SmOOOthAkshun@hotmail.com. Pics would be good. I was also wondering about the original paint......it's a black bike with silver fenders. Does anyone know some kind of code for the colors used and where to get the paint? Thanks

that's what i'm redoing now,too. those parts you are looking for are on e-bay. as far as the paint ,good luck nobody seams know or tell what they use. i bought some silver duplicolor paint at the local store that's close to what i think was close. try ohiocycle.com and retrobikes.com for parts. also westernhillshonda.com , good luck
