84 Berlinetta new in the family

Picked up a sweet little berlinetta this past weekend for the daughter. 122K miles with the LG4. Completely unmolested for $1500. A new set of plugs, wires, cap and rotor and the miss it had is gone. Other than a set of front struts, some window sweeps and a few other minor things it's in really good shape. The overhead console even has the flashlight in it (and a spare console was in the hatch. Digital dash is pretty cool too (and mint dashpad).

At some point it's got to stop though, that's three f-bodys, an 84, 85 and an 87 (the gray one would be number four but it's not really mine, it's promised to my nephew).

Wow, nice find

I've been looking at an 84 SC locally for about the same price. V6/5spd though..... I even have a line on an LT1/T56 to swap into it.... tempting

enjoy!

Re: 84 Berlinetta new in the family

Yeah, we're working on that. She's been wanting to drive my TA for a few years now but knew I'd freak if she broke anything. For the price I couldn't pass this one up although it may take some effort not to worry.

Only thing wrong with it is the black thing someone stuck on the back end.
