Looks like a puma or a thing shroud. Needless to say Id change that to a 36hp shroud. But hey it is awfully functional and is a nice big canvas to paint on ;D
I have an original stock 66 steering wheel with horn in real nice shape if you need one, I like to trade for stuff.

Thanks for all the good commits guys.....
Yes indeed It is a very good solid start and thats what I was looking for and this one kinda fell in my lap so I had to take it.
All it needs is paint and some custom work it drives and rides great. All the O.G. parts are their just waiting to be put back together.

Did you cut your own beam or buy one? How about the tie rods? I am going to do the same thing this weekend with Happy Camper.

It sits on a 1969 IRS pan and has a 1600 DP motor. Here are some photos of when Troy and I went to go get it. And some updated in my garage after we started to disassemble it to get it ready for paint.
