84B Restoration - update-Touchdown!
#5

Thanks Mike, I do plan on re-coning and have the frame cleaned up to do that but I'm still looking for advice on how to repair/replace the spider.  Someone must have done that before but I haven't found a thread on it.  If I don't hear otherwise, my first approach will be to try and reattach the old one by splicing the pieces back together.  If that doesn't work I'll trim out the bulk of the spider and glue in a new one made of manila file folder paper or something similar.
