CA Garrett's 1985 GSL-SE from San Jose

Hello everybody, Really exited to finally get in that rotor game! Got the car from a friend at a great price. I pretty much couldn't say no. Been interested in buying one for a while now and just came upon the right place and time. Suppose i'll get down to the details now.

85 GSL-SE
180XXX mi.
Mostly original as far as I can see few interior bits broken and missing but mechanically its all there. The car feels very solid, not really clunky or noisy as a many 30+ year old cars. Body is straight with dent on fender and some pretty serious rust spots around the bottom of the hatch. Underneath the car looks good enough as far as rust goes though so

The engine seems to run fine for, now.. Smokes a bit but i'm premixing around 1:120 so uh thats probably why right?
The plan is to turn it into weekend fun/ AutoX car and do the build right the first time.

Ladies and Gentlemen I present to you, The Claypot!

I like it! A quirky touch by the previous owner. I imagine It will remain the Claypot for quite some time as more important things are coming off and going on.
