-Body rust, repaired w/new steel fenders and rockers and fiberglass of box.
-Brakes: Front and rear brakes are drum. Must be careful to install in correct position.
-Carburetion: can be problematic, but only if gas line filter and vapour (Canadian spelling,EH?)system is not regularly serviced and maintained.
-Differential is not positraction so this adversely affects ability to drive in mud or snow.
I have owned 7 of these little wonders, they are the most fun you can have really cheap.
I use mine to tow boats and utility trailers, and have had canopies, camperettes and campers installed.
I try keep this one stock as it is now my "collectable" (30 plus years) and as such qualifies for collector plates and insurance.
Got one too! Went through everything. Now it will last another 30 years.
May I ask what you bought yours for and what condition it was in? I have one that I want to sell, just need a a quote! Thanks.
