Yes, I am thinking you're right. It is a 1984 GL model. It is that 2-tone brown & cream color combo with the GL velour interior; rear seat for 3, middle seat for 2, then the two captain's chairs with armrests up front. Like I said it is identical to my GL, save for a pop-top. Go figure. Will see if I can get pics today or tomorrow & post them to the group.
