"The best $500 I ever spent"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Currently have a CV Joint Problem.

Just put a new Clutch Cable in.

Body in Very Very bad (rusty) condition.

Smokes the spark plug in cylinder 3 every 2 months.

Also just had a new ignition coil put on.

The heater Sucks in it.

General comments?

I love the car on very curvy roads it handles like the sports car I always wanted.

Gotta love the 5-speed.

Not the best performance power wise, but it goes enough for me.

Backseat space... NONE.

I have the fold down seats in the back and with a stereo system in it with the back seat down it rocks.

Love the 6 and 1/2 feet of leg room.

What I love about the car most is that I don't have many problems with it and the problems I do have a minor, and I also love the fact that all the power motors in it work and that amazes me you since it is 20 years old.

In the right mechanics hands it's an awsome ride

I had a 1983.

Rusty holy stinky. I bought it with 125000

Didn't do penny's with of maintaince

got rid of it at 225000. (I missed it)

but very-very fun to drive

this year (2005) I found a 1985

and plan on restoring it to utmost performance.
