$100 Dollar Special 1978 Super Sport Cafe
« on: June 26, 2014, 05:12:03 PM »
Bought for $100 bucks. New plugs, wires, coils, ignition, and jetted. New avon tires on powdercoated wheels and drilled rotors. Made rear hoop & seat and had it professionally upholstered by a local guy. The seat is all foam and covered in BMW red leather (pretty much Honda red). Still got lots to do, but it made it to Laconia and back with only minor headaches. Enjoy.
