Welcome to the forum and yes, when you get it, pictures, pictures, pictures please.

1982 was a bit of a transistion year in that there were still the SOHC models but the DOHC models were also available. Just make sure that when you post questions you specify which model you have or you may be misled inadvertantly.

Welcome. I have a close friend from Transylvania. He escaped from Ceaușescu over the mountains and across the border in the middle of the night in the early 1970s.
Hopefully you are young enough not to have gone through some of the stuff Joe endured in his younger days. We are glad to have him though.

Well I was born in 1983 and the revolution was in 1989 so I remember a few things like shops were empty,no electricity evenings,no TV nothing.Horrible times..
