Tracking down a former car in Charlotte

I'm looking for a black 85 GSL for a buddy in Savannah. It was sold to Atlanta, then to Charlotte (I think) to a girl that's no longer on the board. Her name was Lauren and she went by red_blast. If anyone knows where the car went, we'd like to know. Yeah, they all came off the same assembly line, but you get kinda attached, you know?

Nobody remembers her or the car? It was a 5-spd GSL w/ SE suspension and wheels, with a 13B under a Holley carb.

i went through the same things with my first truck... found out later that the motor is now in a Z31 300ZX pulling the front end and the truck was wrapped around a tree while the *** that was driving was running from the cops. i hope you get some news about the car, but expect the worst.

Not to bust your chops (too much) but whats so special about that car?

Does it have cash stuffed under the bins or something?

There must be a story here, we want to hear it
