Me too...but I have really battled to find one in excellent condition. The trade-off with this one is that it came with disc brakes, excellent interior and everything else 100% original except for a replacement engine and single side-draft carb from a 1500...but I'm already looking for replacement 32 PDSIT carbs, twin port manifolds and linkages ;)
