I can help....I have been researching and putting together the equipment for my '83, which would be pretty much the same as this one.

Thank you sir. I plan to place a bid. Too bad it will need a repaint to make it right.

No prob..I just realized...I didn't know the engine had been pulled and the whole compartment painted blue.

Have you seen the photos of the in-service '86s? Good stuff. :)

Dang, you're right. I guess I didnt notice the newer engine bay pic. I did look at the older one with the bay still white. And as David P pointed out to me, the door jambs are blue as well. I like the blue interior though, and those steel wheels kick @$$. That car is going to need a lot of work to return to white. What a shame. Oh well, if I can get it for a reasonable price, it will still be a good deal. Do you know if the decals are permanent or statics?

I think I have seen the 86 in service shots before, but I will take a look again.

I think the decals are permanent. M-Squad did them for him (copcar.com). Good luck getting it. Good to hear it has a chance to be restored.:thumbsup:

Hey Mike...or anyone else. Has anyone here ever run or seen a Carfax on this one. Has it ever been in any accidents? Does it have any rust issues, etc etc.? I am about to email the seller, but wanted to see if anyone here remembered anything about it from it's previous times being for sale. Looks like he really needs to sell it. The price keeps getting lower and lower. I would definitely return it to a Colorado car, so it wont be a cheap investment for me. :(

I remember the car...and I think it was pretty solid. John M. owned it, too (xxtrpr), so he could really tell you about it.

Thank You Brian, much appreciated.

So did you snag this car? It appears that it went for $6500.00.

I hope some one here got it if not you.
