try $1200 who knows. The plus is its an 87. But I would pull that monstrousity of a belly pan off and all his other inventions...

I didn't know if the 87 was worth substantial more than like a 85. Yeah that bubba stuff got to go. And some oem back wheels would be the next thing.

me too, I think I got one of under 5,000 made.

It had a K N O C K so loud, I had to walk around the
back of the barn to keep from getting sick and hurling.

Someone set the valves with a rusty shovel and it sounded just like a 3 minute terminal rod knock.
but now it purrrs
Sorry to agree but if the timing chain doesn't clicktickslap and all the gears sound ok with no oddities
and
the rear axle has lickable oil in it,
tanks isn't full of pinholes, I'd get it without thinking.

New carpeting is cheap.
Maybe some 70's oem disco shag
and I bet that skid plate is stout, unless he welded into the frame
or it holds mud to the point of frame rot.

I know I want another one but getting an 86 sx on Thursday
so I have to space them out and pretend I've "had THAT one for a long time"
..."don't you remember? "

(works sometimes but easier with guitars and tools)
