pics in this post :)
and newsupdate: the bed, once cleared of garbage, didn't look like a 52 bed at all. also the extra shock absorbers did loook like a 64. after posting a pic on the KTr forum everyone was shure - this is a 64KD that lost it's KD part. will take a little longer to restore , taken there isn' t that much info on it.
