New owner but not my first, from Summerland BC
Good morning,
New owner from Summerland, BC. Purchased a 1985 5 Letter from a friend in excellent condition. Maybe some of you recognize the car as it has a little history to it. . Lots of little minor things to do to get it up to where I want it but I will be making a build thread to follow my journey.
Background: This is my 4th first gen, and hopefully my last I have been looking for a 1st gen in this condition for a while, something I can keep until I die.

It is a Canadian model bought here in British Columbia, was stolen around 2001 so the restoration in 2003/2004 was essentially just a full paint job and interior clean.
I do have a build thread that I will be slowly adding to and including more pictures as I go

If I remember the car correctly, it was a low mileage example and was stolen and spray painted multiple colors. It was recovered around 02 or 03. Didn't it belong to another forum member here? I remember reading about the car and seeing pictures of it painted multiple colors.

Yes the other forum member was on here, the other was my friend I bought it off of. Technically I'm the 3rd owner. And yes it was painted on the outside and the inside was painted with washable paint
