Hi. New member here. Several months ago I got a nice '71 Rupp Roadster. It is all orig according to the previous (2nd)owner who bought it from the orig buyer. The bike is metallic light purple, with the exception of the front fender which is chrome, and the tank, which is gray. I was told by another knowledgeable mini-biker that the tank must have been painted by a previous owner, as the '71 bikes did NOT come with gray tanks. Is it possible that some early 71's came with a left-over '70 gray tank? Thanks for any help.
