My GL Coupe
This car started its life in 1987 as a GL coupe, EA82, 5 speed, front wheel drive. I was feeling creative and needed a project.
I bought the car for $160 and drove it home – although the right front parking brake was locked up in the caliper.
I pulled the engine and transmission out and tossed them. They would not be useful for this venture.
I redesigned the car entirely – mid mounting an EG33 with supercharger.
