EFI was standard in 1986! Makes life easy on upgrades.

Looks like it has Turbo Coupe or Sport seats with a "conolette".

$900 OBO doesn't look too bad. Mine was $600 w/a rod knock about 10 years ago...

Yep stock engine. if that was out here it would be mine. Then again if it was out here it would be a rusty POS:hick:

Sorta................. they are part of the seat track assembly .
turbo/sport seats just bolt right to the consolette tracks .

That is part of my future plans :D

Or you could cut the consolette off and install a full length console. That's what I did:D

"the car needs ,,,and a trany service 79.99 at jiffy lube"

This makes me a little uneasy. Maybe he's just saying it should have the fluid changed per schedule. Or maybe the tranny isn't working right and he thinks it can be fixed with a fluid change...

If it needs a tranny offer him $300.
