Unless Ron was in Calif. then no he never owned it.

Three owners in it's history.

And yes, the second gear syncro is out and the motor has an unknown knock in the top end. I believe it to be a lifter, but I'm not spending any more money on it until it either sells, or my situation improves dramatically.

Questions or concerns? Please ask.

Ken

Ouch! That's what an 8000 rpm shift will do.
