Barely a scratch on the bottom...once I clean this baby up, it's going on the shelf for sure. It's my first time handling one of these buggies, and it simply amazes me how technologically advanced they were in 1984.

Took the front end apart today, these old trucks are quite a bit more complicated than I thought, the steering especially :lol: This restoration is going to be slow and easy, but I hope it will be nice and minty when I get done. The wheels have already been polished once, with a few more times to go.

$50 or so later, I have a FT screw kit coming, along with all the parts I could buy to make the front end basically new.
