Cheers

I need a choke cable and dash washer/lable as well as a boot lock barrel with key. It is about all that is missing. I have alot of dash parts, but no choke stuff. I have a couple of things i could swap for them or cash. It is up to you.

Well it all started out early summer 15 years ago, I was belting down Great northern hwy in the trusty hz prem wagon, when the serenity was shattered by 15 monkeys with hammers going for it under the bonnet!
