I got it tonight, and he offered these wheels for $100

has a drop tank, everything seems to be good in it, just need to fix the rust and gearbox boot lock and some electrical problems like the rear windows, and thats basically it,
give it a service, fix the power steering (i think it is the belts)

Vt with VU/VZ bits
Save the toilet paper for if you ever swap out the distributor or leads. One job that'll give you the shits for sure

i flushed the coolant today, it was brown:spew:

i just want to get in to the boot but the button and key doesn't work, the only way is to open it from inside the boot, but my fat ass cant get through the center fold down arm rest,

can the whole back seat fold down? i cant find any buttons

Fixed the coolant leak, tighten the belts, and gave it a bath

i think i might be getting to attached to it.

It looks a bit weird, its because the front tires are the wrong size.
