Not something I really want to do but other factors in life may mean the 78 Royale we bought last year is for sale. If so, I would like to get around $22,000 for it which is less than what we have into it. I will add more later but Miguel redid the engine and resealed the tranny, it has 3.70 gears, new exhaust front to back, new wheel bearings, alcoas with new BFG commercial TA's etc. It also has EFI with EBL and Paterson dizzy. Everything works and it runs and drives fine. It also has the complete Banscomb parking brake kit with new front and rear brakes. Factors at work and Lisa's health may mean I have to retire 3 years early and the long term budget is not set up for that nor will she be up for traveling.

I will get some pics up but some are at

It is a side bath center kitchen model previously owned by Ed Burner from Calif.

If you have any interest shoot me a pm.

Darn it Wayne, you only got one full summer out of it! I hope all the circumstances that are driving this sale, especially your wife's health, turn around for you and you can keep it.

Thanks Randy. It looks like I will be retiring at the end of the year. I don't see us getting much, if any, use out of it so it is best to sell it and move on.
