All power/crank windows?

Just getting my first good look at my 83. Is it weird to have power mirrors and other power stuff but crank windows? I forgot to check if it has power locks.

My 83 GS has power mirrors, power hatch release, and power fuel door. Manual everything else. Manual windows, manual door locks, manual sunroof. If yours matches then it's most likely a GS. I think that the GSL came with power windows and door locks.

My '80 had power brake assist, (manual) power antenna, and power hatch-glass release. Everything else was manual.

I retrofitted electric windows; Several times thought about doing electric mirrors, but seemed like more pain than it was worth; car's small enough I can reach the psg mirror from the driver's seat!

Glazed sounds like my car has the same options, its got the power hatch release, fuel door, etc. Anyone know what brand of radio was stock on these cars? The one thats in there is a clarion tapedeck I think and it looks kind of factory.

^^ i do believe its a clarion...anyways, i got a gsl and the only difference is the power windows, i've still got manual locks, and manual sunroof ....rear hatch, windows, mirrors and fuel door just like the GS.

I wasn't aware that any FB's came with power locks, and I believe the stock sound system is indeed the Clarion. I particularly like mine, and it acually sounds good for 25 years old. Nothing like being able to blast Motorhead while backroading!
