EGADS! I was halfway out the front door thinking you had stolen my Chief but then I recalled seeing the S emblems and black flares.

I must say that one is a LOOKER!
Is it okay to say I'm more than a bit jealous?

Wow, very nice. How does that Street Demon run? They are a clean designed carb but I always suspected that they might not run well off road.
