^^er, that's not a twin solex carb engine as described (1200cc type 3?)...and note how the spark plug leads go through the fan shroud to create a nice hot spot...
the interior and frunk upholstery best left unsaid.

Complete with cheap plastic fuel filter in the engine compartment, between the pump and the carb without hose clamps.  _________________

It also looks like the wrong front hood with a welded in badge area. Otherwise it seems like a reasonable price for what you get. |
