I haven't had a chance to play with it yet.  It is -25ish when it arrived
and I wouldn't blame the battery for not coming out of bed.

One set of lights are fog lights, one set of lights is driving lights.  I
think I am going to remove this assembly as it doesn't look right.  Looks
like it would be some good eBay fodder along with the canopy!

I am partial to the color too - main reason why I bought this one, well,
other than being a TriStar!

Hopefully tomorrow I will get it started and for a bit of a drive, it is
supposed to go to -33C tonight so it may be a little too nippy to do
anything tomorrow.  Hopefully the local authorities won't mind the Swedish
plates!

Okay, now that >IS< interesting. Note the custom lower grill, with 2
sets of foglights (4 in all). I have no doubt about why that battery is
dead.... :)  Also looks like a previous owner cut off the bottom of the
fiberglass front bumper.

Cleaner than mine, by a long shot, similar color too.
