27 here. Not too many guys in the mid-twenties range. Seems like either 18 or 40-something.

'84 GSL-SE sold
'83 GSL parted
'85 GS V8 swap... now running sr20det
'79 SA wanted to be a DD but I think the rust is to bad to salvage so will be parting soon
'85 GSL made a deal to buy it... still need to get it... will swap my sr20det work into for a DD while I do body & paint for the '85 GS.
