what a beautiful well kept 81 if you dont mind, what did you pay for it, how did you find it, and most important, what do you plan to do to it?

Just got it in November.
All Original except paint, tires, 69k miles $8800
The guy needed the storage, he only put on 4000 miles
in the 10 years he owned it.
I have only driven it 4 times, it is stored for the winter
.
Seems good will know more in the spring.

Very nice ride!!!
I don't want to seem critical... It looks like the passenger side mirror was installed with the gasket reversed
It could just be the picture angle, because the driver's side looks great

WOW!!! Very nice looking ride. I would love to come across one in that kind of condition for that kind of money. I would be very tempted to have my money disconnected.
