We'd love to see any pictures you have of the restoration.

well, I think There is a missunderstanding due to my poor knowledge of english. I didn't made what you call a "rebuilding". When I acquired the car it was in excelent condition but didn't started for 20 years..... The car was stored inside a garage in a warm dry place. What I did is make a extensive maintenance, a complete check, change some rubber seals and tube lines, change all fluids, wash the fuel tank. change tires, brake assy, fuel pump, water tank (for a steel one) and some other minor works. I just finished a new onroad breakin in and the car show a gran total of 15000 miles. I have been lucky to find VIN4957. It's realy in great condition and ride like a dream
