Is it best to re-chrome the original rims? Or are there reproduction rims available?
My rims are true and straight but there is some rust. My chrome plater wanted 3-400 to rechrome the original rims. Is this ball park?

Do you think the swingarm is for an early CL72?
The bike was in pieces when I bought it and may be the swingarm is for a different model.
I have 2 other swingarms and the axle fits freely in both.

The brake is dual brake shoes with 2-actuators off of a single cable
should be style ll.

I am restoring a CL 77 # 1054240 The left side of the swing arm axle opening is 18mm
the right side is 21.5 mm the axle is 20mm
Why is the left side to small for the axle to penetrate?
Is the left side maybe damaged and needs to be machined?
