My First 3rd Gen F-Body

Hey all, I've had a couple of 1st gen and two 2nd gens but never a 3rd gen F-Body. My wife is constantly reminiscing about her Berlinetta in High School, so I surprised her by driving up to PA (We are from N/VA) and got her a 2 owner '85 Berlinetta with 64k miles, LG4 305, T Tops and automatic. Towed it home 2 1/2 hours and hid it in the garage. She was beyond surprised when I showed her. It wouldn't be my first choice, but for her it's perfect. I've already learned a lot on this forum while researching the car. Thanks to all who have contributed.

$5,600 which I was thrilled with since I've seen similar conditioned at dealers for $10k+. They were originally asking $6,500 but dropped it to $5,800 and were pretty stubborn after that.




Thanks.
