Newest member to the family 1985 GSL-SE

It's been 20 years since i have owned a FB...I've been wanting a GSL-SE for a few years...i finally picked it up a 85 today. The stack of records that came with the car is incredible...every record dating back to 1990...The car had a complete restoration back in 1997/1998. The interior is in immaculate condition with several custom features.

The exterior isn't perfect but pretty good for being 26 years old.

I have to take care of the wondering steering wheel issue and it stalls when i am decelerating. Once i get those 2 issues taken care of she will get a new set of wheels/tires (16X7 with 215/45/16's) and a new paint job to match the 7Beast. I will probably upgrade the brakes.

The engine bay needs a little cleaning and perhaps a little bling

I'm a big fan of wood in the interior, being the old school guy that I am. All you need is a wooden handle for the hand break to complete that wood accent work the prior owner did.

I might have one like the one I have in my S4 TurboVert. Perhaps you've seen it if you've been to one of the DFW meets.
