Thanks! Its pretty much the way it was when I got it from my grandma's neighbor's garage a couple years ago. I put the Renthal bars and stainless braided brake lines from Galfer on it. I had to make an adapter out of aluminum for an aftermarket rear master cylinder. Bosch coils, DG pipes, Uni pods with a "custom" intake that I made with some advice from Chuck. Other than that its pretty clean. Very low miles and has some nice patina!

Ok! I'll get to flippin'! Thanks for the compliments! I was gonna strip down the pipes and re-paint them, but i like the patina on the pipes and those cool stickers that are over 40 years old!

Thank you! She's not perfect, but the original paint looks great.
