Was about ready to buy the vegas buggies body, but I really did not like the way the rear portion looked....wanted to stay with a Manx look then I found this one....
I had to act fast on this as there was a lot of interest on this one...good thing I lived pretty close to him...paid $3800 out the door which included the side pods in the same color...I also picked up a brand new set/kit of Kardon 40mm carbs, alum empi intakes and K&N air filters with linkage for another $200 from him...it also came with a brand new windshield, frame and seal, poly seats, brand new 1641cc DP (FI case, new heads, dog house cooling with alt. conversion, 009, stock degreed pulley) engine with tri-mill exhast and u-bind pipe, speedo, elec fuel pump, headlamp housings and H4 bulbs/lens, rear tear drop brake/ts lamps, rebuilt IRS trans with brand new CV's and boots, new brakes, wheel cyl, hoses and hardware, master cyl, ball join front end and KYB front and rear gas shocks. New billet steering wheel and matching shaft cover, stock steering shaft. Wiring kit with fuse box, stock gas tank and lid. Steering couple kit, battery box and hood beading.
It does need some pan repair, rust holes but nothing real major....already got it Reg. at the DMV...gave me new plates even with a non-op.
