It'll take about 1 week to send parts from the UK to Rhode Island - I have had them arrive in SA in under 5 days !
Don't let postage bother you...............parts are cheaper in the UK anyway

 

I tried to buy this without carbs and instruments (lighter) but he would only do local pickup. Don't know if I could fit it on a 88 anyway but looked to good to pass up.

I msg'd the other 2 parts I need and they will not ship to me either. Looks like I'm bending the lower and the inner ones and will have to keep an eye out for the left side (killer is I had one last year but let it go cause I thought I had another one in the right color but the guy sold it to someone else on me. ).

 

Hey:

That's to bad that looked pretty good, you would've had a very different colour and yes with a little work the newer body work can be made to fit pretty close. You only would have needed to purchase a newer tank and seat to get that all to work. That would cost an easy grand plus, used in the USA. Good luck on your project

 

Thx, not bumming that I couldn't get it then.
