Got My 1st FB - 1983 GSL

Just picked her up this weekend, pictures took on the night i picked it up after a friend detailed it for 5 hours.

Few night shots:

















Couple day Shots:









as far as i know the paint is still original, and as you can see it's in pretty good shape, considering the car is 23 years old

OMFG. Those are some beautiful shots. Nice photoshop skills too.

Ur friend did a really good job detailing the car. Hopefully I'll get mine detailed soon with a nice compound buff to bring the shine back.

Ur photos are officially mine!

I like that color. The widebody was that color before I started it, didn't realize there was a brown in that color until I started sanding it.

Looks like you scored a very well kept car.

it has 134000 miles on it (just over 210,000km). The car was originally from the states, but imported into Canada a few years back. All it needs is a little tlc on the cosmetics, door panles, hood, rip in the driver's seat. That's it.
