stesir Posted September 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 I broke the upper steering wheel/ignition switch cover, that's what the delay is oh and the hood prop, the '86 I have out is nice but different style than the '88 which is hanging all good will try to exchange them .....the fuse box cover is different also.

techboy Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) I remember seeing this car for a while on the local CL here. Glad someone got it ... looks like after some cosmetic work you might have a decent car. Does it run?

stesir Posted September 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 Let's put it this way....I'd be driving it were it not for a Hood cable switch going wrong UGH!!!!!!!!!The '86 is different than the '88's.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuze Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) Looks like the previous owner had a pissed off girlfriend that keyed the car up! Happens to the best of us...

stesir Posted May 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 Well I have posted in virtual mechanic on this car's problems and ordeals...it is starting everytime and revving at 2000rpm for 2mins then kicks down to normal. It is re-starting everytime when hot(that was an issue)...I'm thinking about gettting it back on the road and just driving it but seems like there is rear, trans, brake noises/issues. I have rear/tranny's on stand-by oops prob not to good to say I have tranny's on stand-by Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuze Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 original color Palermo Grey...was owned by MitsuMark. Haha, small world. MitsuMark and me were cool back in the day, we're both North Jersey guys. Good to see he's still got the SQ disease. He definitely knows his stuff and I learned a bit from him over the years but lost touch. That's also who sold me my 83 hood for $350 lol. PM'd you.
