Some late winter pics of my 83 GS

All the snow, and most of the winter salt is gone and I've been trying to put some miles on the FB's after a long winter of them sitting. My GF and I decided to go out and take some pictures of the GS in a few different locations near my house today. The camera is nothing fancy, just a 4 mp point and shoot, but a few of the pics turned out pretty good.
Anyway, enjoy!
Sean

Ahhhh dry roads w/o snow - you LUCKY bastid. Up to our @sses in the white stuff here till mid-April methinks. Skiing will be great if it ever warms up! Like the 2-tone with the ducktail combo. Looks like a nice quiet road to do something illegal on

Thanks guys!
7aull, yes those roads are good for some late night fun, not that I'd know about that or anything
Dave, yea the wheels are nice, not in the best shape up close though, I'm planning on blasting them and repainting them this year. The spoiler is not the 3 piece IMSA, although I do have the 3pc on my other 83, the T2. This spoiler is a 1 piece that I bought along with a Kamei style air dam I haven't used. Not sure if they are actual Kamei pieces as they are fiberglass ( I think the Kamei air dam was plastic/rubber like the stock bumper making me think these are replica's) either way I like it lol.

Oh yea no arguments there, the 83 LE wheels are by far my favorite FB wheels too. The wheels are pretty straight, no major curb rash, but the car they came off of (the incredibly rotted 83 LE I picked up back in high school) sat in the grass for 6+ years, so the wheels are really corroded and pitted. I painted them with high build paint so they aren't too bad, but its starting to chip off, time to redo them...

I could get more pics of it if you want, at the moment its got the 13" plus wheels on it since the tires on those LE wheels were pretty much shot. As it is I still slide around more than I'd like in the rain lol, time for new tires...
