Other members have expressed interest in checking out my recent find, so here are some pics. It was originally built in 84 and clocked 13k miles before it was parked in 1999 in this garage and covered due to owners health issues.
This is the first time in almost 20 years it has been out in the daylight, non running, frozen brakes and years of chrome pitting moisture from living on the coast of CA.
Here are some random shots of what Im working with. It now is running, brakes are gone through and I have taken it on 2 test drives with square, 20 year flat spotted bias plys...LOL. It runs good, shifts all gears and doesnt overheat. Next is tires and a longer road trip to shake it down and see what I have and that it all works together....then it comes apart this winter for a thorough clean/polish/paint/re chrome session. I have some small changes I will do but it will mostly stay the way it was in 84, cassette deck and CB included.
