Hi Bill, welcome back!  I hope your health is better.  Are you thinking of making the GC160 conversion parts available?  There has been a lot of interest in this on this site.

Thanks, 
Rick

just a little info on the deluxe simplex(chrome fenders,tank etc. we bought this bike at barber motorsport three years ago in the swapmeet area. it was in need of restoration, but a complete bike. had never been apart. every nut, bolt and piece was used to restore it.

I see his hold up. He has no tools in his hands, how is he ever going to get it done with no tools. 8)

Bill, nice looking bike!  Does it run or does it need some TLC?  What are the frame and engine #'s so we can add them to the registry?

funny thing about collecting. most of the 30 simplexs weve got have found us. i have people calling, telling me they have one or know someone who has one. sometimes they just show up at our shop, hoping we ll buy it. yeh, were hoarders
