UPDATE:

With so few parts, pulling the Taco down was a relatively simple and quick job.

The only real problem that I encountered so far, was that the swing-arm axle and bushes had become one and were corroded together, which required cutting through the axle to remove. But aside from that, I was pleased to see so many original Bultaco bolts still in place and in good condition, along with so many other parts in an un-molested state!

With the frame and swing-arm in two separate pieces, I set off to get them sandblasted and officially start the re-build.

2 coats of primer, 2 top-coats and a clear coat (along with a small repair) and the frame was goo to go.
