New here...looking for an '86-Any advice?
This site is cool! I'm looking for an 86 Carrera coupe in silver. Can anyone give me some advice on where to look? Condition must be nice but it doesn't have to be original. Please email. Thanks!

Well, my advice would be to take the engine and Al suspension parts out of an '86, hot rod it, and install into an early car.... throw the rest away....
Seriously, try Pano or Excellence and your local paper. |

Why so specific with the 86? Jump the G50 line and grab an 87-89. They aren't a whole lot more.

Sure it has to be an 86?
Was surfing WWW.COLLECTORCARTRADER.COM and saw this one in WA. Seen that engine before anyone? Thumbs up to whomever's car that is.  rjp EDIT: PS: it's an SC (duh) but for laymen it's a 78-83. rjp

 the '86 has the heater updates etc, without the extra expense of the g50
