my new 85 gsl-se buy

so i was working on my wide body project outside at least a month ago because i got tired of it just sitting there, so as i was working on it a guy approaches me and starts asking me about my engine my car my plans with it why i was working on it outside etc. after about an hour of conversation he says hes selling the same car an 85 that he needed to let go so i told him id check it out thinking i cant afford another project. when i went to see the car i instantly fell in love and had to buy it as much as it hurt i dint have the space or time for a project so i had to sell my widebody but after a few conversations with the buyer im not too upset about it, from what i see she couldn't be going to a more than a better home im pretty sure hell do with her what i couldn't complete because of lack of resources. but here is the new love of my life!

Awesome looking car, good luck with it! I'm planning on doing window tint for my car as well.

I like the floral seat cover too

I tinted my windows myself and they look pretty good so far, but I may shell out a two hundred to have the entire car professionally done. But I may use that money towards something that actually needs to be done on the car though, like an exhaust haha. Good luck with it, it looks like a fun car and you'll have a good time with it!
