Title: New 80's Baja
Post by: Geoff on September 10, 2003, 09:42:17 AM

Here is the new winter driver Baja with 80's paint job. Reminds me of the Island hopper chopper from Magnum PI ;)

This Baja was built around 1988 and was in it's day a fairly nice car. Time has taken it's toll on it and it needs some lovin, I spent last night fixing many engin problems and finaly got it to run. I should have it on the road  in a month or so depending on the inspection.

I picked up a nice 80's roof mount scoop and oil cooler from Sac. I think i'll need the full Miami Vice outfit to go cruising.
Oh yeah it has some vintage radar detecter in it and a lot of lights and switches on the dash, pure 80's overkill.
