Texas is a big state. I think the majority of the cars are around the Austin area.

I ran a carfax on all of the '86 Texas cars, I think most of them ended up near military bases. There were actually none registered in Austin last besides mine. Quite a few spread around the country though, NC, Cali, etc... again thinking military. Haven't done the 85s, so I can't speak to that yet.

I know he restored my old car, M5-582. Didn't go back stock, no spotlights or black/white and had a cowl hood. That the one you are thinking of? We do need to find out who he sold it to.

Yup, that's it. I hope he left the unit number on the inside of the door jamb. It was a cool car, sat for 20+ years after being bought from auction in downtown austin.

That's awesome Jason! I can't wait to see this car! 4-eye coupes sure are sweet. I cant believe its was going to be a parts car! You got there in the nick of time! Do you think the brown paint is the auction paintjob?
