kevindb85 0 Posted January 4, 2008 I finally finished the restoration of my Sunstar. Made in '86, it was one of the first ones made. Model# is 1691018, serial# is 01413. Before: After: It took about 2 months to complete. Good thing I don't have to pay myself! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kevindb85 0 Posted January 7, 2008 One thing I would like to add. Do to a health problem, I could not get the hood assembly back together by myself. But a friend at my local dealer jumped right in to help. Thanks Adam. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
