Hello, Brian here. In a previous life (pre children) my wife and I owned several rotaries, always loved them. I had a 83GS Silver, 79 Blue, 80 Silver (in that order) and my wife a 84 Tender Blue, 91 Convertible Red. All stick cars, all treated us well.

The 83 was my favorite and was perfect, sold it (along with the blue 79) to buy my wife's engagement ring in 1988. Always wanted to get another 83 just like it and had been looking for a while. Was fortunate to find an all original 83 in silver with 28,000 original owner miles, bought that a month ago. Having all the rubber and fluids etc replaced and should pick it up today. Will need a few parts but that post will wait til I hit 10 posts so as not to incur the wrath :icon_tup:

Looking forward to registering my car (last registered in 1989!) and getting it on the road.

Congrats on the car and welcome back to the obsession. :)

Stopped here on the way from Wisconsin to California, so cool to see! Mt Rushmore in case you can't zoom in.

Welcome and congrats on the new '83! Minty unit, she looks to be in a great condition!

Thanks, it is very nice with no rust. Couple small things need replacing but no dents and only a few small scratches / paint chips.

Looks like it's right off the showroom floor! You drove an unregistered car all the way from Wisconsin to Calif? Brave man! hehe
