Update:

The Masi was passed along to a new owner late yesterday afternoon.

I may finally be about a day or so away from confirming my new house. Seemed the right time to pass her along to someone who will surely get on the ball and do a proper restoration more quickly than I've managed to do!

It was a pleasure having been the temporary caretaker for nearly 3 years, but she's gone on to a deserving third owner who will one day return her to her former glory.

N-1 on the complete-bike front so far this year. Guess an old dog can learn new tricks
