Looks great! I'm jealous it looks sharp and still maintains that "sleeper" image!

87 was a turbo-t. Not t-type. Also had aluminum wheels rather then steel making it technically lighter and faster than GN. Awesome ride dude. This guys super jealous.

College roommate had an 86 and 87 g/n...they are so understated on how fast they are/can be. Minimal mods and d/r and it ran 12's all day...then a/c on the way home....nice purchase.
231ci ftw

Thanks guys decided to do something different then another fbody. Ill agree that it needs black grill and the headlights. But I love the sleeper look. Eventually it will get an alchy kit and a nice front mount intercooler.

ugh wanted one so bad as a first car, they were just ridiculous with prices, they have come down some years later. Its great you have the bumper fillers intact, i get so used to seeing them missing.

usually they are. The passenger rear is cracked a little. The only bad is the vinyl top is ripped in the back and it could use a new carpet. Funny the factory tach and boost gauge work. Thats really hard to come by. Within the next few weeks she will be getting a new fuel pump and 42lbs injectors. My buddy has a 3in downpipe he had off an old set up. Ill also order a updated chip. Hopefully get to some meets

If you get a chip... do a LS1 MAF and a TT chip...

Is it rude to ask what you paid for that beast?

Yes, The stock MAF maxes out very quick.

Older powerstrokes... But quality FMIC's are cheap enough... or even a dutt neck IC is better then stock...
