Proud New Owner 1983

Post by Ichdien9502 »

Hey there crew - proud new owner since April of a 1983 Spider. It's originally from NY - now residing in Ottawa. Needs lots of work and love and it'll get both. Will post some pics and questions later on spiders originally from our wonderful southern neighbour's (weird looking speedo - looks like they glued paper mph cover over original kph face). For now just want to thank Jay for replacement seats and sharing an afternoon gabbing about spiders.

My handle ichdien9502 is a dedication to my great uncle who made the ultimate sacrifice on the western front in WW1 on September 25, 1915 the first day of the battle of Loos - almost 100 years ago.
