Picked this up as a side quest while getting may hands on another AeroDynic. The Mrs. Actually liked this bar.. she called it... cute. So OK.

Overall condition is VG to Excellent considering its age. It appears to be missing 1 screw for the endcap, probably an easy replacement.

I wanted to document this bar, since it's quite unique in both appearance and relatively rare. It's surprising very simple and very straight forward. The bar had a dead short affecting the rear facing lamps, caused by the ground wire inside the bar and the power lead for the rear lamps getting fused together. Remember folks fuse your leads, and don't assume. I've repaired the damaged wires, and cleaned the bar while I was at it. Works 100% now and I've labeled the wires to prevent this from occurring again.

Pre Clean up guts.. Can see the wire repair if you look close enough.
