There are no '86 TurboII's (except in Japan.) Ask the seller more about the history...

I didnt think that they made Turbo II in 86 I though that they started in 87, i may be wrong but a Turbo II for 1k is not a bad deal, it may need a rebuild soon depending on how the previous owner took care of it. Have a compression test done also

Sounds like a deal, if it really is a turbo.

might be a '87 turboII sold in '86, on my pink slip ('86 GXL) says sold in '85, so maybe the seller assumed it was a '86...?
