as i have said in the el stocko thread, very nice bigears. similair to my wagon in terms of looks and originality except yours has had a much easier life than mine and it shows! end of the day its an n/a so do what you want but the best thing to do is make sure anything you do do is returnable. that means no holes and save all of the parts like the steering wheel and exhaust in a dry storage area. you won't regret it. anyways get some updates happening!
