After checking brakes and bearings (2 new wheel cylinders), new tires and wheels, new shocks, all new hoses, new thermostat, new belts, new spark plugs and wires, and finally battling a choke issue that turned out to be a PO improperly installed the choke housing, the Twinkie II is ready to roll! Starts like a dream, idles great, rides smooth, drives perfect!

Only took 3 months and hours of labor.
