This is a 1986 99% stock car -- it's the nicest I've seen in a loooonnnnng time. Always garaged, very nice car - must see!!! The car has 29,225 miles right now -- this might increase a bit before sale.
I bought this car in September? 2003. I have put a total of about 1500 miles on it in a little less than 4 years. I bought this car because my friend had a few of these (GN and T-Types) over the years and I always enjoyed them.
I think I am the third "true owner" of this car. The guy I bought it from donated it to his church in 2003 to save on federal taxes. I picked it up from his house, but the title was in the church's name, so there may be 4 total titles.
I think it may have a mainstream vendor chip, and right now has no catalytic converter. It also has an alarm (working, but I cut the loud speaker off) and cd changer (not sure if it works). I have the original Goodyears in my attic --the car has yokohamas on it now. Other than these things, it's stock.
See pics for VIN and trunk option code sticker. This car has the moon roof.....to be honest I don't know what the difference is between a moon roof and a sunroof. They both operate the same to me. Anyway, I think I remember someone telling me that only 300 1986 GNs were made w/ the moon roof.
All electrical accessories work like brand new (power windows, power door locks w/ remote, power antenna, power seat, moon roof, etc). Doors, hood and trunk open and close like a brand new car -- really pretty amazing feel to them.
I have only driven it around my neighborhood the last couple of years, because Texas instituted the "hardass" emissions check in May 2004 (I haven't tried to inspect w/o cat). I've also had little time for the car (or my blown Mustang for that matter). I moved into a new, larger house, had two toddlers and have unfortunately grown into a career that eats a lot of time.
I recently changed the oil, spark plugs (looked to be original), belt (looked original - was cracked and squeaky), flushed raidator, and replaced the headliner.
I had the AC changed to R134a in 2003, but it needs some freon currently (compressor cycles, so I think it does still work fine).
I plan to get the car inspected and to recharge AC before sale.
Asking $18,500 OBO.......please give me some feedback on this. I see that KBB is crazy high on the 87s.
I want to move this thing to a good home quickly!!!
