Hello, This the first Square Body a 1979 K25. I am 74 years old. I hope I can be a helpful contributing member. I live on Prince Edward Island Canada. Quiet place especially when the tourists leave in September. For a place with only 140,000 residence there is a fair size group of car & truck enthusiasts. I own a business that designs and manufacturers heat exchangers for industrial, marine and commercial use. I have a machine shop as my hobby and enjoy anything challenging. My daily driver is a Volvo. I have several other cars and 1 motorcycle.
My K25 came from Alberta and is a bit rough. I'm not the kind of person who needs pretty just safe and reliable with a bit of extra power.
