Sorry, I don't have any sources for the missing parts. A sunburst head is a paint scheme wherein the head tube is painted a contrasting colour, along with elongated, triangular "sun rays" extending onto the top and down tubes. Sunburst heads are typically white or gold, with the rays outlined in the same colour as the frame stripes. In the case of motorbike style frames, the lower of the two top tubes typically does not have any rays.

A starburst head is a paint scheme wherein the head tube is painted a constrasting colour, along with stylized, triangular "rays" extending along the top and down tubes. The most common colours for the sunburst are white and gold. The rays typically are outlined in the same colour as the striping on the frame. In the case of motorbike frames, the lower of the two top tubes typically does not have the rays.

T-Mar Thnx for the info, I appreciate it. I have the cross brace. Do you have any leads where I could find a rear axle stand, pump and tool bag, I didn't see anything on eBay. Please excuse my ignorance but what are you referring to when you say sunburst head?
