Subject:      1985 GL FS - Macon, GA

There is an '85 GL for sale at Vineville Auto Sales here in Macon.  Bob
Tyson is the owner.  I have no connection with him other than I bought my
'84 from him in 1997.  He said he was thinking about $1600 for the asking
price

I have not driven the '85, but looked at it though the windows this morning.
Odometer reading was 158,000+.  Interior except for very back of cargo area
looked very good.  Exterior looks like it has been repainted (color of
coffee with cream) and it looks like it needs a good rubbing or a new paint
job.  There is what appears to be a minor ding on the rear of the cargo
door.

Mechanically it is going to need at a minimum new A/C compressor (per Bob
Tyson), new tires and a new exhaust system (my assessment).  I am going to
try to take it out for a test drive next week.

Let me know if you are interested and I will e-mail results of test drive.
