Developing Smarter Mechanics.
Since 1989.

I never did a thread on it. I picked it up a couple years ago pretty cheaply after it had been sitting in a garage for 20 years. Got her running smoothly, fixed the electrics(no lights, non-working top, no horn, etc) and started driving. There's a lot more to be done but it's a really good 20 footer at this point.

The engine is getting very long in the tooth and I'm getting a lot of blow-by so I'll have to be tearing it down some time soon. There's a bit of rust around the trunk area that'll need to get addressed in the next few years. Also, the interior is shot to hell from a really bad 'restoration' from before it was put in storage. Once I really start taking it apart it'll be time for a thread.

There's more pics of it here if you're interested. http://imgur.com/a/aEcTd

20 footer or not, that is loving gorgeous. I would love to drive something like that to work every day. To hell with gas mileage. I just, unfh.
