Just purchased this scruffy 1985. Too good a price to pass.
Not quite sure what I'll do with it... but for the price and condition I don't mind playing around with it. Perhaps it could be a low, low budget track day toy?!?
Pic was taken last Summer in Arizona. The car made its way to frigid Ontario, Canada where it fell into my cold hands.

For a moment there I thought the stripes came off my '85.
Keep us posted on the updates.

If all goes to plan... the '85 gets picked up this afternoon on a flatbed truck and we take it to my friend's place where I had my '87 last year.

Defiantly seen better days; but just think how proud of it you will be when you post the before and after shots.
Good luck with the rebuild.

Whatever you do with her, enjoy!  I love my 85 more and more the longer I have her.
