    Finally got a 70

    Yesterday the wife called me on her way to work and said "Merry Christmas". Needless to say I was confused until she told me there was an atc70 in the back of a guys truck with a sign that said For Sale. I ran down there to the guys job where the truck was parked and went inside to find him. He's the second owner, it came with the original paperwork including a card with a plug screw to plug the hole for the speed limiter screw. It has a string on it so I assume it hung from the bars. It's an 82 model, in great condition. Starts one pull, no choke in 30 degree weather. The gas tank looks new, it is leaking oil from the drain plug, haven't looked into that yet. Homemade grab bar that doesn't look bad but will be replaced with a good condition oem one, if you have one to sell pm me. Yes, my wife is awesome. On to the pics.










    It came with a like new Z50 parts book if anybody wants it, let me know..

    Nice little 70, looks like the frame may be tweaked slightly and the steering stops to.

    Blue27, I would be in for a couple shirts.

    looks pretty good. congrats on the find.

    briano, it looks fairly straight to me. i think it might just be the angle of the pic. although there is some weird wear on the front sides of the tank like the front has been rubbing on it.
    you gonna gas and ride, resto or maybe mad 70 build? either way you'll have fun.

    +1 for a 70's shirt.
