Other Notes: It runs and has been painted now. There's restoration here and there to do, a little instrumentation and LED indicators and such. People always ask two questions, how far and how fast. Well I've had it up to 85 on the interstate and the most I've been was about 40 miles and limped back but it never stopped.
