Hey all just thought id introduce myself. The names Barry. I live out in the midcities area. Got my first 7 a few days ago (86). Car needs some work but I am already enjoying it. Had a idle around 1500 but went back to normal when I changed the battery. Anyway hope to see some of you guys around in the area!

Oh and sorry for the crappy phone pics.

 

Nice find man what did you pay and how many miles? Looks pretty good!

 

Very nice. Way cleaner than what I'm starting with

 

Paid 1700 for it. 320,xxx mile on the body and a little under 90k on the motor. It runs really good and the body is decent as well. A bit of wear and tear in areas but the owners have takin good care of it.

 

Damn, nice mileage haha, I thought mine was good at 273k

 

LMAO!! I think yours is still in better shape then mine. Not to mention you have a sweet *** T2. I seen the thread on DI.

 

Nice T II and at a great price, hope to see you at the meets whenever we start those again. Good luck with your project.

 

oh no man this isn't a T2 lol oh how I wish it was though. I hope you guys do start up some meets. Would love to chat with you guys and get some knowledge on these wonderful cars.

 

We do have meets. Monthly, in fact. Meet us here first Saturday of the month.

 

For the miles on it, it looks pretty good! It looks like you need a front tire; I think you're running on a spare.

Welcome!

 

Yeah my bad, still looks good.

 

@ No_love_for_pistons - Ill have to make it out then! Wish I could do it in January.

@ mrb63083 - oh you noticed that did you

 

Also, at least your **** doesn't have to pass emissions haha. I cant even get mine legal because it's so stinky.

 

Oh damn.... I forgot it hits the 25 year mark next year....**** YES!

 

You are already good actually, this year is your 25th, next will be 26th :P I've got a year for my '88

 

Welcome to the forum.. Nice find .

Enjoy your FC..

 

Thanks for the comment TIICONV89! I am really enjoying this car a lot. I have always wanted one since I was younger. Want to start working on it but as of right now I am still reading up on this car. I want to be able to rebuild these motors myself.
