1987 non turbo I love it!

I have been blessed with this wonderful car, I just got it from my friends son who has owned it 20 years. 161000 origenal miles.
It has a miss but runs out really well. I love driving it! I found out the other day that the rear end will slid out from right under me, I had a left turn arrow all to myself. I down shifted to second and hit it in the turn.
next thing I know is I'm facing on coming traffic and stalled out!!! No damage and lesson learned!
So I hope to to keep this car as a collectors and over time get it up to snuff, It needs a bit of body work. mostly a big rust patch at the bottom center of rear glass.
Hope to learn from all you peeps
