Nice find !
Sometimes they still happen to be holed up
In someone’s backyard
CE model # so this came standard with a 307.

Exactly the right amount of sparkly blue paint will be left once buffed and detailed.

It ran pretty smooth actually, until the fuel pump died trying to load it on the trailer. Fingers crossed the drivetrain won't need a lot right away.

Tags are current believe it or not!

Yup, they are getting pretty much impossible to find these days even in my region.

I appreciate that! The plan is for a grandpa style refresh just like Vitamin C, only with paint like the Blue Bomb...
