Anyone have more info on this Bike?

I came across this photo and am wondering if anyone has more info about it.
I love the look. Looks like a simple thing to do.

Looks can be deceiving...
...
Fitting a different tank,.. fabricating mid-sets,... lacing up a larger rear rim,.. extending the rear frame...
fitting custom fenders... relocating speedo,...
If these things are easy,... you are builder...

Ha, I guess I was dreaming. I like the look of the rear fender, The ryca and some other cafe bikes make the rear look to naked.

Then, start with a new rear fender... or find an old one you like, off a 60's or 70's bike,... and fab it too fit...
I built my bike one step at a time... sometimes 1 step forward and 2 steps back...
This a great bike to play with...

That pic is what inspired me to purchase a GT550 tank which I'm going to hammer knee dents into and have powder coated "chrome" which looks more like a polished aluminum. Over the coming winter I'm sure I'll be busy with the tank, a larger rear wheel, lowering the front end, fenders, seat and such in hopes of ending up with a Café/Standard kinda like CommanderChaos' Dad's ride.
