Yes! Our Super passes Aircare! Big thanks to Busdaddy.

Well, people have tried before with this car/motor, but it had continuously failed Aircare. So much so, that even the one time 3 month grace period has been used up. After going through it, Mark/Busdaddy got it to pass on the first try!
The motor inside appears to be a quality build, but it is of an unknown size. All we know is that it's bigger. Has a single carb on it now and a 009 which behaved well enough for Aircare. It's time to start to thinking about duals for it... it could definitely use them. Drives like a grown up car.
A long list was done on it since last may, Bruce went through the tranny to make sure all is well and Mark did the rest. Among the rest, in the process he cured the shimmies it suffered from(Super with shimmies, imagine that) via replacement control arm(was bent) and a new ball joint.
So, it appears that wife's Super, also known as Betrum will be seeing some cruising this summer!
