You had better sandblast your front inner fenders to be sure you replace everything that needs it!

Did you get the gas heater with it? Just asking as I see the holes in the front trunk for one. Otherwise it looks pretty complete. _________________ Bob 65 Notch S with Sunroof

Today I'm removing weird tunings.
It looks better in the original.
there is also a plan for Emmpi "D" carburetors. Injection has already seen its best years behind it.
