Back From The Paint Shop
Created on 2008-05-13 20:54:08
New paint (gracias a Pepe de Advanced Auto Body de City Heights San Diego- gracias mi amigo).
New carpet, trim, new seat rebuild, gauges cleaned, dash reworked, sound proofing, wiring.

I'm ok with the Zenith Stromberg carb but I slapped a english airspeed hi flow air filter on as soon as I could. Zoom zoom!
