Hello All. Did the main intro in the General BS area but wanted to say hi to all the FL members as well. Anyone from the south of Jax, near Mandarin-Fruit Cove? Just bought my second, an 85 (the first was a GMC and was traded a few years ago). It runs, looks great from about 25 feet, has potential. I'm sure I was hasty and probably should have kept looking but it is black cherry and matches the Harley. I'll post a pic soon.

Hello neighbor I'm in Mandarin, Son and I just bought a 83 in need of repair. We are going to take it completely apart and fix what we can over the next 6 months as he is going into the Navy in June.

Keep me posted on the progress and what you find once you start taking it apart. I'm afraid to do mine for fear of what I'll find. I know it's a bucket of rust. I'm considering getting a different frame and start from there and put the body on that. Anyway, I guess that's why we buy these things. Tim

Hey Umatilla,
How's this for starters--I grew up in Tavares during the early 70s and just recently had an all 1970s classes reunion at a guy's house there in your town. I like Lake County and someday just might move back there.
