Default Don't let them sit

I bought this "86" for my daughter and she wouldn't even look at it so I put it in a garage while deciding what to do with it.

This was in February.

I insured it with Haggerty and haven't drove it much.

I was driving it to the parts store to get some paint for the front spoiler and the blasted thing just shut down. Flooding like crazy.

I got back to the shop and in the end had to replace the throttle positioning switch and Mass Flow Sensor.

Car runs great now but I will try and drive it enough to keep fresh gas in it.

This car was a one owner before I bought it and as far as I know it is stock.

I even have the window sticker and build sheet. Roy

I really have too many vehicles now. If I were offered a decent price it would probably be gone.

It still needs some work. Exhaust would be the major part needed.

It is a fun ride. My son likes to cruise with the tops out. Even if the heater has to be on. Roy
