Thank you! As for the seat the PO used vinyl paint on it. It used to be maroon. I repainted the seat a few months ago because the maroon was starting to come through.

I am not a welder so patching it will have to wait but I found the following thread that gave me a cheap alternative.

But I'll have to redo it because my old gas cap and tank tube grommet are worn out and it leaked when it rained yesterday.
