Ok, so I'm buying an FB tomorrow for parts. I tried to get it running today but had carburetor issues and dealing with the choke. So I'm just going to tow it instead. Owner is not sure which model.

Its an '82 model and has:
Sunroof
Rear disc brakes (woo hoo)
Automatic tranny
13 inch alloy wheels (large 4 spokes)
4 spoke steering wheel

What I'm wondering most is whether it has LSD or not. And are there any differences in rear ends with automatic cars or is just the transmission/driveshaft? I'm hoping to swap it when I buy my next FB if it has drums and open diff in the rear.

I think I'm loving FB's more than FC's already... Thanks guys!

 

GSL

 

GSL's came with rear disc brakes which also means it has a LSD.

 

Awesome, thanks!

 

automatic... didn't know they made automatic GSL's.... well, at least you know the engine hasn't been run too hard!!!

 

Time for a tranny swap.

 

I think the auto was an option for all trim levels...

 

All, except for the SE. It only came in 5-speed.

 

Nah, this FB is pretty beat up. Both sides are mangled in, frame damage, needs paint, etc. Getting it at a good price so I can't complain.

 

yeah gsl's frigin rrock ....well not quite as hard as se's , but hey they still rrrrock ...Y ou gotta love lsd's in the morning...mmmwwwuuuhahahaha , as you peel those tires like potatoes down the road sideways on your way to work , cause your late damn it ...

 

GSLs do come with autos, as did mine. I really want a tranny swap but dont have the place to do it time, or money. AKA Im a student.

 

Do it in your driveway on spring break with parts from a junkyard. There problem solved
