Went all the way up to Logan/Hocking Hills area this weekend to check out an '86 coupe with a buddy of mine, had some good parts and a fairly solid body so he put a down payment on it and we went back the next day to get it, towed it back with my Ranger lol
Here's the pics from CL

So the car was in a bad spot, up in the hills, everything around it covered in ice and snow so we took the guys word on how it drove since we couldnt really get it out of it's ice hole it was stuck in when we went to look at it.
So the next day we scraped it off from the snow it got that night prior, and fired it up, and managed to get it out of the hole it was stuck in

Loaded it up and took it home.

And here it is, in it's new indoor home down in Norwood.

Needs work, but the car is pretty solid for it's age. Needs a smaller carb, some wiring needs redone in places, and it needs a few things straightened out, but I think it will be great when done. Came with a Harwood cowl, FRPP C springs, and lakewood upper/lower control arms.
Supposedly it's a 302, stock bottom end, with trick flow twisted wedge heads, tfs stage 1 cam, 1.6RR. Has an 8.8 in the back w/ 3.73's as well, longtubes, full MAC exhaust, Mac mufflers/tailpipes too.
