Hello. New to the forum with '86 Tojan.

Like the title says. I have had several f-body cars over the years including an '88 Iroc 'vert, '87 Iroc 5.7, '84 T/A, '86 T/A, 94 Z28, 95 Z28 'vert, 79 Z28, '80 Z28, '81 Z28 and now this '86 Tojan. I believe most of you are versed as to what this car is. It's been awhile since I had a third gen and I'm loving it all over again. Having one as rare and as different as this one is an added bonus. Only 53k miles on this example. Here's a few pics of my latest 3rd gen:

Welcome to TGO!

That's a beautiful example of a Tojan. Good to see one that's been cared for.

Wow, looks to be in good shape. I've never seen one of those before though. Not sure if I like it either.

Nice pick up though!

It's got a stock 305 TPI for now. Only 300 of these made between 1985-1992 and they were sold through select "elite" Pontiac dealers when new. I was told that besides the wild fiberglass work, it's got a Gale Banks suspension and this one has the Recaro leather and digital dash (not GM digital dash).
