My dad is looking to buy another GN/T-Type since he wasn’t too happy with the one he bought last summer. There’s a couple he has his eye on, one of which only has 11k original miles. It’s a completely stock '86 GN, right down to the original tires. Could anything be wrong with the internals? I’m also worried about rubber hoses deteriorating, the tires might not be any good, anything else to look for? The owner says there’s some slight surface rust on various parts, but other than that, it’s supposed to be in excellent condition. We plan on taking a trip to see it in the next couple of weeks. Oh and I bought the T-Type off my dad so I hope to have grown a full mullet by mid summer. :mullet: ---
