I never started one of these so i figured i would now. Here is my 85' TA. i picked it up around jan 2010. The car was rust free and ran pretty good.

Here are some random pics from when i got it. We got a ton of snow that year haha!

Very nice car, but like I said in one of your other posts I liked the old red better. The car is still sweet no matter what. Whats the deal with the engine? like spec's?
