Talking Just got her today!!!

Just picked up my second 7 today...got her for $500 cdn. She runs well, needs some body work, and brakes, but other than that, can't beat the price. Came with a whole load of parts too!!!


Oh, the details...'86 GX 221,XXX kms on the odo, 40,XXX on the rebuilt (have all the papers...it's a streetport)

Are those stock rims?
Seems a lot of 80s vintage vehicles had swiss cheese style rims.

Good deal on a good find.

Nice deal. To attach the trim, use 3M double sided tape. I've tried several others and the darn thing wouldn't stay on. I used the 3M stuff in a really half assed manner and it has stayed on flawlessly. Sherwin Williams sells it and probably other autobody places, but at least in London it's no longer available at the autoparts stores.

Snrub: Thanks for the tip...I wasn't sure what to do, maybe thinking about the epoxy route but 3M sounds a heck of alot easier
