Jens,

Welcome to the forum.  *welcome* I'm confused. Did you buy three "A"s, or throw an extra one in there for laughs? Anyway, it looks like you have some good fun in front of you. In terms of age, even at 54, you are  representative of the younger generation that will keep our obsession alive. I started rebuilding my A!0 20 years ago, when I was 55. Been riding it since 2006-ish (except when I was busy fixing it).

I'm guessing the A10 is being restored from being choppered  *smile*

Hello Jens, welcome to the forum. Your English is 1000% better than my German. I ride a 1953 plunger A10. They are great riders, just watch out for the potholes. There is a wealth of information on this site. Remember the only stupid question is the one unasked. Good luck on your build. It looks like a worthy project. Lloyd L
