Nice. same as mine except the colour

She looks to be in great shape and very original!

So what are your plans for it? Any immediate work needed or is she ready for the summer?

And of course - welcome to the forum!

Plans

Right now it is being worked on so I can drive it. The fan clutch is stuck and the carb gaskets are bad creating a vacuum leak. It also needs a tune up and some new ignition coils. It is being worked on by Elite rotary shop in Schaumburg IL. Plans for next year include a winter build, putting an FD engine with a single turbo setup and all the needed goodies to support 400hp in it.
