There are a few minor nicks and scratches and some flaking/pitting on the chrome wheels. The rear antenna needs replacement and the canvas top shows some deterioration along the clear plastic window.  And......the dreaded rear subframe welds are perfectly crack-free!

This is one clean, comfortable and quite groovy two-tone cockpit!
