A stablemate for my 81...new 80 coupe

I added a stable mate for my 1981 coupe...Found this car the other day on craigslist (vancouver) seller just wanted it gone and gave it to me for $100 cdn...i was thinking it would make a great parts car,but after bringing it home (seller even delivered it) and looking it over, i don't think im gonna part it...so i guess i now have two winter projects ahead of me...

Details:

-1980 inline six coupe
-bittersweetglow 8D,interior brown D2
-165,000 km
-2 owners before me
-needs tail pipe and rear shocks are gone,but other then that everything works and drives pretty good

So here are the pics:

You can't part it- its a notchback! Throw the seats in the trash, drop an EFI 5.0 & T5 in there, grab a used set of pony wheels and you're good to go!

It doesn't look like there's any rust either. You're cornering the market on early 80's notchbacks up there in Canadialand!

paint it, do a 86 nose, do a 91 black leather full interior conversion, some newer 1/4 windows, new lx taillights, slicks and skinnies, cam'd/SCJ aluminum head'd 460 and that thing will be ready to rock! haha
