hello
this is my 85 gs that i picked up about a month ago for $425
it is 100% bone stock o.0 with 104k miles
with it came all the recipts of the original owner (o.o.) and some from the guy who he sold it to
the o.o. took pretty good care of it and it shows as its only got one rust thru on the passenger fender and no salt damage underneath
the p.o. let it sit for quite a while though and let it deteriorate in the sun and snow
as of now ive changed the oil and sanded the hood and roof to take off all that oxidization but some places are down to the metal from sanding down surface rust
i plan to make it daily driver reliable this fall and do the bodywork thru the winter for paint sometime next year
havent decided what paint color tho but im leaning toward mazda 41 v (candy apple red ) or mitsubishi w 13 ( diamond white )
as for the problems it has a neglecteddegraded front suspension i'll be seeing too and a miss ( distributor ?/ plugs ?/ carb ? / fuel filter ? ) that i am trying to fix and thats about it aside from needing to replace the brake pads and shoes
the day after i brought it home
condition of the roof
