Good choice, but... What do you want to use it for?
How much do you want to spend?
Do you want one to do up or want to buy one already done?

Maybe you should consider a 70 series cruiser mate you get a few extras like disc brakes and power steer and 5 speed without having to modifiy and the petrol ones go well with a bit of work
Dont get me wrong the 40 series still look better
