moose Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 A few weeks ago I happened to check the HAMB classified ads, and saw there was a transporter in Texas looking for a fare to bring northeast. I called him and set up the details. A week later it was at my house. There is a lot to do to it before I can drive it again, poor thing has been sitting 15+ years, but it's in great shape. I got it cleaned up, and running within a couple of days. Had to put in a new electric fuel pump, and run through the ignition, clean out the carburetors, and such. Still need to do the brakes, too. But man, oh man, just have a look: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbbbbb99 Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Great car and nice garage set up. I always loved those enclosed walkways between. Should make working out there in the winter a bit more comfortable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moose Posted June 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 Thanks guys, I've owned the car since my junior year in high school. 25 years! Three carbs, Mikuni 34mm side draft from a 750 Kawasaki, on a long run intake, and straight down headers. First set-up I built, about 22 years ago. I don't have pictures right here, but there are other pics of it on this site. I'll add some more tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just worked out to be a similar diameter to the ports and carburetors. Works well. I look forward to getting it out for the upcoming spring and summer!
