Picked this up at the annual Baxter auction in Marne, Iowa. This should be a fun build. There were lots of bikes up for auction and prices were very good, fun weekend.

That’s got the makings of a cool bike. Will you start a rebuild thread?
 
I will add some photos along the way, and also some questions as well. This is going to be awhile from now as I need to finish the G15 first.
I've already taken most of the motor apart just to see it's condition, it looks good so far but I'm having trouble getting the crank out of the case drive side? I have used heat to the case and tapped with a mallet a few times, probably needs more heat and a little better wack?? Look what I found in the outer cover of the gearbox lol who knows how that got in there.

Well it is a real silver quarter, that's a plus.
