Restoration Help Needed

We have a Single Carb Truimph that we are trying to get running. We believe it is somewhere between 63 - 65. We have emptied the fluids and need to know how much, what kind, and where to fill at? HElp?

You can start with 1/4 cup 10/30 in the primary, 2 quarts of 20/40 or 20/50 in the oil tank (drain the engine sump besides the tank), and fill the tranny till oil dribbles out of the "level check plug" in the bottom of the tranny case (80/90 Hypoy).

You won't hurt anything with this baseline, but get the model/spec nailed down, they refer to the shop manual.
