    Bingo!!! Nope, This is the used 85 P3 that I bought a few weeks ago ( In Iowa ). They crated it up in a motorcycle crate and shipped it to me. I haven't taken it out of the crate yet. The crate is about twice the size that was needed. I did a quick look at it from the couple openings in the crate. I have found a few things that I feel that need to be addresses before running it, but over all I am Happy with it!!

    Here are some pics from the listing ad. Original rear tires. But I do know it has had some damage in it's past. I got to repair the crappy repair that someone did.
