Mine has been fantastic. Only thing I have had to do, is change out the throw out bearing (making squeaking noise) in almost three years of daily driving. "10"......... OH and for some reason frequently replace both rear tires???????????

I'll give it a 10. Yes even my '78 II that sat in rain sun and snow for 7 years non stop runs great now. It even had gas with lead still in it... So when I got it, it didn't run good, changed the fuel filter, do you really want to know about how many times? About 20 times in the course of less than a year. Then no we got all the shiit outa my gas tank, it runs great. Starts up fine in the 18* degree weather... Drives fun, has power, gets me from point a-b. So yea, works fine when I operate and take care of it.

It did used to die on me on the road, even freeway when my fuel filter was clogged.
