In this episode, we’re back on the 1976 Honda CB550 chopper — the one that got rear-ended, parked in ’78, and somehow survived five decades of dust, dents, and neglect.
Last time, we gave it a solid once-over and managed to coax real spark out of the plugs for the first time in nearly 50 years. That felt good… but this week, we’re chasing something a little more artistic.
Today, we turn our attention to the tank — a wild little time capsule with its 1970s custom paint job.
It’s faded. Cracked. Oxidized. Sun-baked. But under all that? There might still be some magic left.
We break out the degreasers, clap bar, wax, and elbow grease to see if we can rewind the years and revive this 50-year-old paint. Will it shine again? Will it crumble? Will we uncover some forgotten 1970s custom candy glory?
There’s only one way to find out.
Stick around for the reveal… and for a chopper that just might be waking up after half a century.
