Got another one!

I picked up a 1986 GXL for $600 today. (my G/f paid for it actually)

It has a decent leather interior a nice sound system. The electronic suspenton still works. It runs good. Not a bad car for 600.

The paint is thick and yellow. it used to be silver though.

The guy sold it because it overheated on him on his way to work. I replaced the heater core hose and it's fine now.

Has a rebuilt motor but the speedo is effed.

I'm a happy camper tonight. And I'm glad I found a girl who has impulses to buy rotaries.

I'll post picks later.

At first I thought you persuaded her to buy it but you mean she actually wanted to buy the car!?

You've found yourself a keeper.

No, I havent't messed with the car at all yet. I'll have to check that out next week when I've got the time.
