Jay, you might want to see if you can find a 1864 that has the plastic trashed and a rusted out deck as a parts source. I have bought two of them to use on my projects. Might be the cheapest way to get the parts you need. I used the rear fenders and fuel tank and seat assembly from a 1864 on my 28 hp command efi conversion when I built it because it is easier to fill the tank. Another plus to this is you will have the dash parts to try to make the tilt steering work. Good luck with this project. I will try to post up some pictures of my 782 with the same mods for inspiration.
