Looks just like mine except tidier (Mine was in much nicer condition when I bought it than it is now..). What part of the shore are you on? Might see you around, I won't be in my 2L though, either in my wagon or on my bike.

Anyways, the carbied 8's aren't that bad - some head work, a nice mild/street cam, a new intake, a decent carb, some extractors and a free flowing exhaust and she is a completely different engine to the way it left the factory!!

The rims were 25 a piece, i guess they realised only people with VL's were buying em so they lowered the price Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
