Just got back with it. Its a Black 87 5 speed with 100930 miles. Only options its missing are leather and sunroof. Previous owner installed Stinger short throw shifter and he gave me a dual piston blow off valve he had sitting around for it. New Clutch too.
Threw a bottle of Seafoam in it with a tank of premium on the way home. Just got done with plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel filter, oil change.
It was a California/Nevada car and has been garaged since moving north. Needs pain and a lot of small things.

I agree. It doesn't look like it but it needs paint. its pretty faded.
Bonus. The AC has already been converted/upgraded to 123a and blows very cold.
