Well, heres my project. Take an old citaion ss and make it look like new. Im 17 and my dad gave me this sled for free. It ran but not very well. Last winter i got the engine running with new head gaskets, a new coil and a nice clening. Also i changed the fuel lines, added a fuel filter and rebult the fuel pump and the duel mikuni carbs. Right now it is completely torn apart and im repainting everything and getting the dents out. I will be buying some decals in the near future. Itll probably just be the warning decals.
Heres just a FEW pictures, to see them all -> http://s128.photobucket.com/albums/p168/noname11445/

The SS is a quick and light runner, loads of fun.
Thanks for sharing your photo's.
We hope to see more as your project comes along.

wow, that was a long time ago. This is what it looks like now, just some of the pics.
Look at the speedo VERY closely. (yeah, i took the speedo apart and set the miles to 0)
digital tach, not very good pic, running a little fast, ill adjust it later. Dont mind the speedo, its messed up.

| Wait until COLD weather to adjust the carbs. Very innacurate when it's warm out. |
