my new 85 gsl

just wanted to share my new gsl to the fb community . i used to own a 90 rx7 n/a but decided that i wanted an fb again and got lucky with this little lady. bought it from a man who bought it for his daugther but really didnt fit her . pretty much stock performance wise , straight body has a body kit around . planning on doing a tune up this week and clean her up.

Congrats. Looks pretty good overall. What wheels are those? Can't tell from the picture. Those wheels are probably worth half of what you paid if they are all in good condition. Nice grab, Looks great. Any engine bay pic??

Looks good. Fwiw, that standing whaletail was over 400 new from Mariah. Same one I have on mine, but mine's just a tad different, lol.
