Looks like a very nice car.
It's refreshing to see such a clean non-TC every once in a while.

Nice Bird. Help him keep it that way. Did you know he has the same wheels and tires that I do? Weird:D

Nice ride(s)

Keep up the good work.

Thanks! Gumby found it. And Gumby has made some useful suggestions to bring it to the car I wanted for a daily driver.

This is my second '87. Had the first from '92 through '98. Smashed up the front end in a traffic accident and didn't have the time, skill, or skilled son available to do anything about it.

A drove a good car out to Gumby's. I drove a great driving car home. This is going to be fun.

One last pic. The dog is a rescue too. Got her shortly before the car.

I guess I never have commented on how nice your bird is too. :o

Very clean for a Chicago area car. I especially like the two-tone silver/med gray combo.
I admit, I was always attracted to the TC's much more than non-TC’s but as I get older, I am starting to appreciate them more.

i thought this thread might be enough to bring you out of "lurk" mode, Rev.

soon enough, you will be addicted to the FTBCF like the rest of us :evilgrin:

If you couldn't, who could. Are you going to tip our hand or keep the entire board guessing about whether anybody within commuting distance of Indy can have you work on their car for a whole weekend for the cost of a case of beer and a hug?

It's so clean and rust free because it's from California and not Chicago:D I'm just lucky the previous owner keept it in a garage so the sun didn't ruin the paint (It's 20 years old. Thank god Calfornia is good for one thing:D ).
