When i first got my 86gl , the wife commented that it looks like our bread box. The name stuck except i use the german ( broat kasten) . All list members will have to agree that ,yes it is a big box that we put our hard earned bread into$$$$$$$$

Jim Morgan 86GL "broat kasten"

ps. went to go camping today and blew a hole in the coolant tank. It seems that a crack had developed from over tightining the cap and dumped a gallon of coolant on the exhaust. Talk about smoke and stink. A state trooper stoped and got out with a fire extinguisher,to help us out. he was real nice and checked on us a hour latter to see if we needed any help. Just the tank went and we were able to limp home..
