Well, after months and months of looking, this 1985 sort of fell in my lap. A buddy of mine works with a guy who was just transferred to Guam, and had this sitting in his garage for over a year. It was in pretty rough shape mechanically but for $1500 who cares!!! The body is really clean, numerous door dings, etc, but no rust!!!
I corrected the misfire with plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel & air filters and a slight timing adjustment, but then found that the head gasket was blown. Also found gushing knuckle wipers, a trashed hub and bearings, etc. So, it will need some work, but I've already begun the teardown and cleanup, so stay tuned for updates as they come.
