Hi, The bumper is 100% original, never restored. The rubber I treat with tire black, and the chrome I shine with windex or chrome polish. Thanks for the compliments!

Hello, I just joined this club. I own one of these. Bought it in 1978 with 3000 miles. I have not resoted it yet but want to when finances allow. It still runs, needs new paint and striping, and has 109,000 miles. Can you tell me what this car might be worth today and what the approx value would be when resoted to new condition? Do you still own yours? It look great!

I know a few people were following along on this- been a while since I last posted here- but finally all came together!
Mounted up and running strong! Still a few details to work out; but runs good, sounds good, feels good on the initial pulls. Super happy it worked out!

Well I decided to go for it -

Went with 42's and a TWM manifold. Still lots to sort out, but Ill start another thread on it somewhere and link it back here. Rought calculations hopefully put it in between an OER setup and a Mikuni PHH setup $wise.

I would probably do them in pairs, then each pair goes to a common shaft.
