Well, that picture is from the owner before the guy I bought it from.

The original owner was an investigator for the NTSB, owned it until 2001, lived in VA up until that point. He sold it to a guy in NY, it was there from 2001 to 2006 when the 2nd owner sold it to his brother-in-law back in VA. The 3rd owner sold it to the guy in Whitehall who I’m getting it from, so it was in VA from '84-'01, and '06-'08, and in Pittsburgh since October. So it’s primarily a VA car, wasn’t in NY it’s whole life.

If it makes any difference. Haha

Picked it up last Sunday for $200. No Front Clip or Tranny. Bought it for a parts car for my other 2 Firechickens. We tore it down within 10 hours. Only things left I still need are Windshield and Drivers Strut Tower Plate. Taking Rearend out at JY once Jarvis picks it up for scrap. Body was straight and looked solid, but after pulling up the carpet and the driver side floor basically coming up with it Im glad I only bought it for parts.

Doors, Windshield, Interior Plastics, Carpet, H.O. 305 Engine, Wiring Harness & ECM all going into my Purple 85’.

Fiberglass Notchback Hatch, Rear Interior Plastics, Rear Crash Bar, Black Dash, & Strut Tower Plate all going into my Blue 86’ Project Car.

They only made 600 or so factory Notchback Hatches, almost any you would see nowadays are aftermarket remakes. I have yet to find out if this is a factory one. It used to have glass, but someone has replaced it with plexiglass. I will probably replace the plexiglass seeing as they didnt cut it exactly right. Its going on the 86’, because its fiberglass and weighs about 30 pounds less than my glass hatch.
