JoeM Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Nice, love the colour of it. I had a 1989 one of these. Watch the back end in the wet! Mine went up a verge backwards for no apparent reason, but your's shouldnt be so bad as it looks like a Rev3/4 which didnt have the suicide handling.
