Hi all,
I have been a follower of this site for years, and Now that some cruiser funds are available, I can foresee being able to pull the trigger on a 40 series once I find one worth buying.
I have stumbled upon this one that is pretty close to my area and I’m curious what it’s worth.
1971 40 with electronic ignition, aftermarket flamethrower coil, gear reduction starter.
Short block replaced 4 years ago due to broken rod. Rebuilt carb, new factory tank. 3 speed, drum brakes. It has a rebuilt title. I am trying to get the story on the reasoning of the rebuilt title. Looks like minor rust on the rear sill and rocker. Supposedly the engine stutters when the gas pedal is initially pressed with a cold engine. Sticky blinkers, gauges intermittent, wobbly speedometer.
Thanks for your time,
Adam
