I finally got one
I finally got an 86 gxl it is n/a, oh well wishfull thinking for the price. the guy i got it from said it didnt run, so i figured i could make it a project car. so i got a tow dolly from uhaul and took it home. Hell i figured for $250 how could i go wrong. So i got it home and put a battery in it to see if the head light worked and the other electronic stuff. i fugured i would take a chance and try to start it. to my suprise the damn thing started right up! so i drove it a little and it shifts good and all. seems to only need a head light motor and some exhaust work. the body also is in decent shape just needs a paint job. OH me so happy.

the guy said it didnt run? why did he say that yet it started when you got it? is there something going wrong with it possibly? just something to think about
