:D It's a 84 T Type! I don't know what shade of red looks burgundy (paint is faded bad) bumper fillers are shot a few little nicks and dents. Only rust is the corner of the drivers side door. The car has blackout trim and burgundy interior, t tops, digital dash. Inside is clean as can be was a true little old lady's car :cool: The best part is the motor was just rebuilt over the summer (stock 84 build) turbo and trans were re-built a few years ago and every part of the brake system was replaced 7 years ago from the master cyl to the lines. I got all the receipts for everything. I'm not out to make this one fast thats why I have a 87' :D This is my winter project to learn body work and how to paint if I am lucky. I always wanted a hot air car and have wanted to get a t top - T Type so this car fit my bill! All I plan on doing is exhaust and some hard plubing under the hood but thats about it. I'll take some pics today it was to dark last night when I brought it home.

Lots of potential there!! I hope to find something like that in the next year or so, when money allows. Congrats again and keep us updated....:cool:
 
That is one clean old 84 engine. I HAD to be you that bypassed the throttle body coolant lines. I cant imagine an old lady doing that. =-)
 
congrats. once you get all the basic stuff up to snuff, and a few basic upgrades (modern chip, good exhaust, etc..) you'll see these cars are not as slow as a lot of people make them out to be.
