I picked up this '84 a few weeks ago from a storage lot, somebody paid lot fees on it for 3 1/2 yrs so I took a gamble and bought it for $450 including delivery. Front end was pushed in a little, twisted bumper, broken grill and signal light, need to replace the front fenders but I banged them out a bit for now. Has alot of little issues but it made a 70km round trip with no big surprises yesterday. No backup lights, needs a heater resistor, didnt get keys so I swapped out the steering column from one of my parts trucks, replaced the grill, rad isnt damaged but it wasnt flowing very well so swapped it out. Made the bumper at work but its just a mockup for now, I'll add a bush grill and tow bar mounts to it, once Im happy with it I'll build a second one for my dd, this '84 will be the wifes winter beater so it just needs the basics.
