I reckon if its good enough, do the minimum needed to bring it to the road. But then, I'm an originality freak. :roll:


Cheers, Matt.

I never cease to be amazed at how these great little motors are able to fire up after long periods of standing!
The Barn Find teardrop ("Jimmy") sat for fully 30 years. I only had to put back what people had removed. Sat there idling after a 2 minute warm-up!

Good news Gricey, she WANTS to go for you. ;)
Cheers!
