Late 60's Bonneville chopper project

Just wanted to put my new project on here. Just picked it up this week, a rolling chassis with a late 60's (not sure exactly what year) Bonneville frame. I've been into doing project bikes for a few years now, but this is my first Triumph so I will have lots of questions along the way. Here's a couple of pics right after I got it home. I will try and keep this updated as progress continues.

Welcome.

Do you have a line on an engine?

I have a couple of "donors" in stock, and can build 'em however you want.

Just a quick update. Not too much has changed, but I have gotten the bike down to the frame and until I get my hands on an engine there will lots of grinding on the frame to smooth it out for a nice paint job. Time is also being spent to accumulate a few other necessary parts for the build (tank, seat, handlebar, etc.) Once some progress is made I will update once again.
