It needs to be saved! Sandy do you know the original color combination for 1986 #8 coupe? I asked for the vin and will message you with it. It sure looks like it was white/orange, but the black rims are throwing me off.

I placed a bid on it and will be trying to grab this one (unless scoutdrivenrebel wants it!).

I will be watching too!

I checked the records. Yes, it is & always was Oxford White !
Records clearly show that it was # 25 of the 115 made, for 1986 & is (or was...)

a Full Packaged model, and NOT a EuroCoupe, nor a Pace Car.

if you say its number 25 of 115, where does the number 8 come into play?

Did someone bought? The car is no longer on Ebay!

Ebay ended the auction for some reason. I messaged the guy earlier in the day and he was nice and provided the vin to me. Hopefully he will put it back up.

Yes I have the same question. I don't fully understand this. Sandy I sent you the VIN#.

Yes, and I researched the car, thru that VIN. It is the 25th COUPE made for the 1986 MODEL year. Tell the guy that put on the dash plaque to be more carefull, next time.
