Man you aren't lying about 84/85's being weak. My first car I ever bought was an 85 GN. I made the mistake of trying to build up the stock motor instead of just swapping to 86/87 motor in the first place.

Anyway, that car looks awesome!!! Only thing I would suggest is to drop it down just a little bit, but thats just my personal opinion. Good price at 14.5K too! GN's will only go up in value over time.

Man, if I'm correct the original owner wanted to trade me this for my SS! I just couldn't do it, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE GN's! I think I want one more than a 03/04 Cobra. LOL! This car was posted in the classifieds right?

Great looking car man, it looks very well built and a nice combination of parts there. Hope you made a good profit on it. That kid pic is priceless.

Did you put a diaper on him so he didn't soak your seat with **** from the excitement!? That is a good looking car. I really like the wheels!


Did I miss it, do you have 1/4 it runs?
