    Glad I sold it to you, can’t wait to see how nice you fix it up. Note to save you time the brake works completely fine, it just need new brake shoes and springs.

    hey man I live in Australia someone in my street has either a sc400 or 300 or soarer it doesn't have and badges it been sitting in their front yard for nearly 4 years now not being moved once I don't know if it runs or if it even has a motor do you think its worth asking if they are willing to sell?
