I just put new rims and tires on it. I fond a new old unmounted set of euro five star rims, and I wraped them in 195 50 R15 Kuhmo tires. I removed the headliner and am going to paint the interoir and make a custom headliner for the center only. And I am saving up for a six point roll cage. And some day a bigger motor and disks on all four. right now my motor is a new 1641 with a rebuilt 34pict. Its fast though.. And for the body not sure yet. I am a body man and sheet metal fabicater..

Welcome. We like updates and pics.

I presume you will be taking out the rear seat when you do your rollcage. I personally would like to see sequential pictures going from the before stage to the after stage of this for my next project.
