Hi Volks,

Just looked at an 85 with the big factory sunroof.
after much mulling I've decided to let this one go by.

Here's the data
Mileage 135k

Motor.  I'm no wasserboxer type, but it seemed OK.  No visible leaks on the
heads
didn't want to blow coolant when up to temp or cold that I could detect.

Interior. OK, far from perfect.  I didn't' check for swivels but it has
the full width zbed I got a coolant smell when I activated the rear heater.

Suspension.,  Yuck  needs shocks unless you like 'em real soft.

Brakes. squealing, and needing a good bleed/adjust at least.
was told by mechanic were fine.  same mechanic did back heater work.

Body overall not bad, couple of dings, Drivers rear signal cracked/should
replace plastic.
missing one of the rear plastic bumper thingies  front bumper rusting on one
corner
looks like it took a ding back when, and repair was a bit sleazy but can
only see up close.
needs lube on the slider but works ok.

Misc ugly stuff.  front fan hardwired to low permanently, was given some
story about how
tough it was to replace switch by mechanic who did heater work. (took me
almost 15 min
to replace mine including coffee breaks (this is Seattle ya know)

might be some other stuff if you poke at me on specifics.  To see it call
them not me.

contact information.
