| Dang. A sad ending. You laced that thing up though. I really dug the DHK sticker on the window. Brought back a lot of memories. |

Well....is been a minute since I've been back on thesamba. Life threw curve balls in my directions that I could not duck. Sadly my55 was sold a few years ago to help with some medical bills. I miss her everyday.
Now for the good news. She was finished (new owners vision) in Texas by a former DLK Houston member and was recently sold to it's new owners back in California, There was no continuation of my build thread nor was a new thread created by person whom purchased the 55 from me...here she is completed.

The coil is ok, its the tiny air filter that kills it for me. That paint is killer though! |
