Just dragged a Karma SR2 out of a backyard where its been sitting for close to 35 years. Its so unique I couldn't pass it up. Just finished a 1776 motor for it and working on the wiring today which is challenging since their is no schematic and age has faded wire colors. I like to keep my restores mostly original- I'm even keeping the turbine wheels right down to the 13" front ones. I'm Missing the hood badge unfortunately & now I see they are like hens teeth to acquire. Any thoughts out on how to find one or mold one- I'm ready!
- Any schematics out there specifically for a Karma SR2 on 67 chassis would be appreciated. I have looked at all the V Dub schematics & they are non-specific for this.
- Trying to figure out what the (2) toggle switches and Blue light on the left dashboard are related to. I found he door poppers are under the dash.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Hi mike, late reply back- I’m not to keen on using these forums. Since last, I did meet with Greg L in Simi a couple months ago. I have come a long way with the car since last update. If I can figure out how to post photos I will. Everyone loves this car!!
