Has the lights, kinda anyway One front is roached as well as the rear lens. Has the front lift rod still on it. Early dash tower. It's been around the block a couple times, but figured I'd bring it home and give it a new lease on life. Check out that plug that was in it...
Checked the fuel tank, smelt dry, so added some fuel, put some oil down the cylinder, checked the oil, hooked the booster box on and turned it over...
Put a plug in and it fired up for a second and the fuel ran out the carb.
Removed the carb and did a cleaning and reinstalled it, no leak, and it started and runs like a fine watch..
Has a sloppy re-paint some time in it's life. How bout' those front tires?
Check out the PO mod of the throttle cable...Just when you thought you've seen everything..
Couple pictures...
How is the Gov. working ?
